Ihave had careers in both business and government. I credit any success I have had to the preparation provided by Westbury High School, Brown University, where I graduated with a BA in psychology and sociology, and Stanford Graduate School of Business, where I earned an MBA with a focus on public management.

After graduation from Stanford, I went to work for one of the major auditing firms, earning a CPA. I later took a position with Marine Midland Bank (now HSBC) for eight years in the chief financial officer’s office before working for Prudential Securities, the fourth largest securities brokerage firm in the world at the time, where I rose to the level of senior vice president and treasurer with responsibility for managing the firm’s cash and funding activities around the globe.
