My professional career started directly after college at Bear Stearns and Co. I began as a Public Finance Assistant and worked my way up to being the Business Unit Controller of the Municipal Bond and Public Finance Department at the New York City Headquarters location. I assisted JP Morgan in 2008 on the transition of the company finances and product, and then moved on to a rapidly growing small business which now has over 70 employees. At that business I was the CFO, responsible for daily analysis of forecasting figures, IT projects, payroll and other subsequent financial roles for the business.
