Following my instincts, taking the path less traveled, and leaning in before my career even began definitely paid off. I knew early on that I wanted to work in the investment field. In college I concentrated most of my free time on learning about finance, and I spent summers working on Wall Street. During my senior year, as my classmates were coveting Wall Street offers, I took the less traveled route of applying directly to business school. I went all-in with business school, knowing that if I didn’t lean in, I’d regret it later. Fortunately, I was accepted to Harvard Business School that January. I’m happy to say that I have found that wonderful teacher and mentor, and he couldn’t be a better boss.
