>> I always had a drive for finance, analyzing the market, setting different companies,
seeing how a business operates, and what drives the business,
kind of like thinking outside the box but also within the guidelines of a big corporation.
That was kind of like what attracted me to the finance world.
And I'm actually the first person in my family to work on Wall Street.
So, it's been an interesting experience because I found this niche that I'm interested in.
And I didn't really have anyone to go to from like family that could support me in that way
or guide me or tell me about their career experience 'cause most
of my family lives in Ukraine.
But my immediate family is here.
And, I mean, they're supportive in a sense where like we want you
to do what you're passionate about, we want you to be successful in like what you love doing.
So, that was awesome to have that support.
But I didn't have the guidance from home.
So, you know, I had to find it here at Rutgers.
And that's where Career Services come into play and that's where other programs,
other organizations I was a part of that come into play.
And I kind of had to figure it out for myself what's really out there.
