To any Biology/Pre-med major Investment Bankers, what was your why banking story?

Really just the title. I am a sophomore triple majoring at a target public school. Being that one of my majors is bio, I am crafting my unique story into IB, and preparing for my big recruiting season in the spring. I would love to hear from bankers who were much like me, and hear your non-traditional journey into banking!!
