>> So I went to Penn State Harrisburg, that's the campus I graduated from.
I did start out at the University of Pittsburg but as a bio premed major.
I changed my major halfway through and you know I found myself at Penn State Harrisburg,
which turned out to be you know, a great fit I will say you know.
The faculty were great.
It was perfect for me.
I thought it was you know kind of the benefit of a smaller more intimate campus,
but still access to all of the resources of Penn State.
So upon graduation I took a job with J.P. Morgan in their Delaware office.
I was part of their-- it was called Internal Consulting Services Program at the time,
and now it's the Corporate Development Analyst Program, so if anyone is trying to look that up.
So that program, it really allowed me to see different areas
of the firm, and grow in that manner.
So I worked in the Delaware office for two years, and went to the New York office,
worked there in various businesses for six to eight years I guess.
Probably more like six or seven years, and then moved up to Boston.
You know I guess a New Yorker I would consider myself; I grew up in New York,
lived in Pennsylvania for a while, and went to school of course here at Penn State,
and then I started in the Delaware office, and then was in the New York office
for about eight years or so; I think eight years.
And then I moved to Boston about four years ago, and that's been you know.
It's very different, but it's a nice-- yeah it's nice it's a smaller town.
You know what; I would say fairly that I have a better quality of life
from a work less bounds perspective,
but you know I go to New York for work from time to time.
You know obviously I'm on the phone all the time with colleagues in New York, Dallas,
you know Mumbai, London, and pretty much all around the globe,
so I don't feel that it's you know a disconnect from you know New York City
or the center of our offices or headquarters.
