Nicole Musser is a Research Associate on the Financials Team. She earned her MSc in Management from London Business School and her BA in International Relations from the University of Southern California.

Q: What led you to volunteer for this program?
A: The range of fields students can choose from is exciting but can also be daunting. The program is an exceptional vehicle for young women to consider what a career in investment management entails. I hope the program will encourage more women to pursue a career in this industry, as lack of information seems to be one of the barriers. I am thankful for those who have guided me in my career thus far and am eager to be a part of more young professionals’ journeys.
