Structured Finance / Securitization Networking

Looking to connect, giving this a second try: 

https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forum/investment-…

Am open to setting up a whatsapp group to add people in the industry, PM me your info and I'll go ahead and connect everyone. 

Where I sit: VP2 in NYC at a LMM balance sheet bank, primarily covering flow ABS with some non-traditional esoteric ABS sprinkled in (Term ABS / Private Securitizations). Have sat in Big4, multiple banks, worked with rating agencies/issuers/investors, with light touchpoints across the different entities. Happy to discuss for those just breaking in, but primarily looking to connect with more mid-level guys to discuss latest market color and potential opportunities down the line.

ABS/RMBS/CMBS/CLO and anything along this line would be great for networking, especially given its a niche product and not a lot of crossover outside traditional IB skillsets.
