The Junior Economic Club of Chicago partnered with the Yale Club of Chicago to engage in a panel discussion with four Yale Alumni: Adrienne Lo, Talent Director at Grainger, who gave insight on female empowerment in business, as well as reading literature containing different perspectives; Paul Hsu, the CEO and Founder of Decasonic, who shared his experience about growing up in the New Haven area, as well as the essays that got him accepted; Bill Adams, the former Co-president of Nuveen, who shared his story of growing up in Columbia and being surrounded by the Spanish language all his life; and Seth Prostic, the Managing Director and Co-Head of U.S. Mergers and Acquisitions at BMO Capital Markets, who talked about his love of history, and how Yale taught him how to communicate his ideas effectively in writing. We discussed why they choose their university, major, internships, and more.
