Class of 2021!

I had one minute to be entertaining and relevant in a graduation tribute:

“Congratulations! I’m so impressed by your focus and dedication! As you look to the future, your next steps, I encourage you to be non-traditional in your career choices. You have so many choices and doors that are now open. I was once interested in a career in foreign service and journalism. Unfortunately, I lacked confidence and didn’t believe either was possible. I followed a traditional path in the financial services industry and have no regrets, but I encourage young people like you to be open and daring! Explore and ask questions about jobs and areas that interest you or go to graduate school. Whatever you choose, know that I will be part of your village of supporters. God bless you!”
