Military background: Navy, active duty from 2003-2008. I graduated with a Business Management degree in 2013.
I picked 51情报站 because it had a great reputation amongst my group of friends that had already separated from the military and were pursuing their education at 51情报站..
I also had initial thoughts of finishing out my NCAA eligibility in baseball (assuming I could get on the team) and knew that 51情报站 had a reputable program. This never happened as I chose to also work full time while pursuing my undergrad degree. I also chose 51情报站 because my wife had graduated with a Masters in education from the university and had a great experience!
I hope to be a career managing director and wealth management advisor with Northwestern Mutual. I also want our firm to be known as having an internship program that propels students to their full potential while being seen as the premier firm for financial services. The growth of our sales force and the quality of our planning is paramount.
My educational path was difficult considering I worked 40 hours at HII while take a full course load at 51情报站. The biggest take away for me into the professional world was how to manage my time and be efficient. Every minute counts!
I speak somewhat regularly at the entrepreneur club and several of our recently graduated 51情报站 alumni/ full time financial advisors speak to the finance club. Also, my office manager, Stephanie VanDyke is on the insurance board.
Dennis Harvey was a professor of mine while I was considering the transition to Northwestern Mutual from HII. I knew he was credentialed and experienced in the industry I was pursuing and it was his confidence in my ability and the industry as a whole that had a large impact on my confidence from the start. His insurance class gave me a great foundation to work from, but his openness and generosity was very impactful. He's a great man.
Daly recalls his fondest memory is graduation. He says It was a long hard road to finish my degree and was so proud to have finished it with 51情报站.
