WHM 2018 Student spotlight: Alex Leubecher1 min read

Alex Leubecher
Graduate Finance Association

Tell us about yourself. What are you most passionate about?

I love to travel. I love exploring new cities, national parks, and secluded beaches. When traveling I also like to try out the local cuisines—that’s actually my favorite part!

What has been your personal experience in the Stern community?

This program and community have opened up a lot of professional opportunities for me. I am particularly excited that I was able to participate in InSITE and become more engrained in the startup/venture capital NYC community, while also recruiting for and pursuing a career in investment banking. It really gave me a holistic overview of the world of finance and investing that I was curious about when applying to Stern.

What advice do you have for women who want to pursue careers in finance?

Do it! Don’t let the current ratios deter anyone who is interested in the financial services industry. Even if you begin a career and find out maybe it’s not for you, it will be a great learning opportunity and serve as a solid foundation that you can leverage in other careers as well.
