Introduction

Hello,

My name is Ryan McCarthy and I am graduating from Northeastern University this December. In my early college days I was unaware of all of the steps necessary to break into high finance. Growing up in a blue collar family and starting my college career at a small liberal arts school, I had no mentors to advise me in finance. As I look to start my career, I want to be prepared as possible and the valuable skills learned through WSO should help me. I feel as though my desire to learn and succeed in finance will allow me a successful career in whatever path I take.
