And you spent some time abroad too, didn’t you? Eliza McKenney I joined after my senior year in the fall of 2019. And then, yeah, I’ve been at Cornerstone ever since. I would highly recommend it to anyone, whether you want to be the Boehly Fellow or go to Women’s Stock Pitch. So I actually graduated a semester early and then helped out with the Women’s Stock Pitch in the spring, which was such an amazing experience. Yeah, I was lucky enough to be the Bohely Fellow for the second half of my senior year. I was a finance and psychology double major at William & Mary.

So why don’t you give us a little update on yourself? Eliza McKenney

And I believe you’ve been at Cornerstone for the past two years or so. But know you’re in women’s business, know that you’re one of the awesome fellows at the Boehly Center as well in 2019 and helped with the Women’s Stock Pitch & Leadership Summit. I’m getting a sense there’s a nice recruitment path there at Cornerstone, given Madison is just a year behind you. So that’s kind of how I ended up where I am. And ultimately, what also kind of led me to Cornerstone because, as we’ll get into, it was such a perfect blend of my interest in both economics and finance and also the law. It was a big reason why I chose to go abroad to the London School of Economics my junior year. That was an incredible experience for me and really shaped my kind of career interests and paths along the way during my time at William & Mary. Like you said, I really was first interested in finance when I chose to study abroad in Singapore and Hong Kong as part of the Global Business Immersion Program summer after my freshman year. I came to William & Mary, where I studied economics and finance.

Really excited to talk about Cornerstone today. So do you want to just kind of give us a little bit of background on yourself? Madison DiLenge I mean, you’ve obviously had some really neat experiences. The Boehly Center, in 2017, studied at the London School of Economics. I know you did the Global Immersion Study Abroad program in Singapore and Hong Kong. Why don’t we just get a little bit about your backgrounds? Madison, I know you’re a 2020 grad. The industry in focus today is economic consulting. So really excited to hear what we’re going to be talking about today. We have Madison DiLenge, who is a 2020 grad, and we have Eliza McKenney, a 2019 grad. Really excited to welcome two fantastic alumni with us here.
