Former students stopped by one (evening) of my classes to discuss their journey (i.e., including winning the Blackstone LaunchPad Idea Competition nationwide) from my class to their current jobs at Goldman Sachs and HQ Capital, respectively. The students took advantage of the Q&A session and were better for it. Happy New Year – Year of the Dragon and Black History Month!
