Career in Finance?

Hi guys,

I really, really would appreciate your advice if you happen to come across my comment, thank you so much in advance. I am very curious, analytical and I have good problem solving skills. But I don't fit the mold of a "typical banker". I am capable of outlining and presenting complex issues in a simple manner. I am eccentric at times and I am introvert, but i am good at dealing with people. Is a career in Finance/IB or at a ( Quant-) HF right for me? What job outside of Finance would suit me?
