Next month, GW Giving Day is coming up and we’re excited to showcase one of our outstanding alumni advocates, Kayla Albano.
During her time at GWSB, Ms. Kayla Albano BS’ 22 was enrolled in Quantitative Investing and Venture Capital classes. Kayla is a 2022 GW Ramsey Scholar and an Associate at KPMG.
“One of the most rewarding classes that I took during my time at The George Washington University School of Business was the GW Quant Student Investment Fund. Each class was challenging and exciting and was an experience I never thought I would have the opportunity to engage in at the undergraduate level. I learned about the world of quantitative investing through complex research, in-class panel sessions by professionals in the field, and hands-on modeling experience. This class pushed students to stay up-to-date with current market news, adopt a problem-solving mindset, and to always be thinking about how certain decisions in model building could help attain the best results – This was ultimately the most influential aspect of the class that I brought forward with me to my current role at KPMG. I encourage all students in the GWSB to take a class with the GW Investment Institute and I also encourage alumni to give back, as this is an incredible GW commitment to experiential learning.”
