My favorite vacation spot:

“Cape Cod, Massachusetts. I grew up vacationing there with my parents and sister, and now my family and I try to make the trip north every year.”

In the news story of my life, my headline would be:

“Small-town kid moves to the city after college, pursues a successful investment career, gets married, and helps raise a healthy and happy family.”

If I were not in finance, I would be:

“A schoolteacher. Several members of my extended family taught school, so it’s probably in my genes. I’ve always been passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience with others.”
