Mya, my parents liked to dress me up in pretty ridiculous stuff growing up. My family all worked in the same industry and financial services. I didn't actually pick morgan stanley, not my dream was to be a trader. And that's what i had written on my white board growing up. Morgan stanley came later once i started having internships in college. But honestly, i didn't even know the firms. They're my super heroes. I want to be like my superiors.
