On Monday night, Davenport alumni Carter Simonds (‘99) shared an evening with Davenport students by delving into the topic of finance. Head John Witt ‘headed’ the discussion with questions concerning undergraduate life at Yale that led Simonds to her career path, mentors and the importance of personal relationships, useful skills and habits that Simonds developed throughout her professional and personal life, and what specifically makes finance fulfilling.

Simonds also shared her thoughts on the modern morality of finance, stating that no career is ever truly black and white. The evening rounded up with an audience discussion, including diversity in the field, the importance of avoiding too much perfectionism, and Simonds’ favorite finance movies!
