I initially learned about Vanguard at a Financial Planning Club meeting while attending the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. As a student with a concentration in Financial Planning, I was actively pursuing a career in this field.
My journey to Vanguard was shaped by a powerful networking experience at AfroTech, where I had the opportunity to connect with knowledgeable crew making a positive impact in the financial services industry.
