Liz Young, Head of Investment Strategy at SoFi

Liz's investment strategies and insights are sought the world over from CNBC, where she is a regular contributor on TV, to SoFi, where she leads the financial technology company's strategy function. We get the tactical low-down into how someone can break into a career on Wall Street, the experience needed to become an investment strategist, and how she became a go-to woman in the finance industry.

Notably, Liz reveals how to achieve professional success, especially if you have to create your own opportunities. We dig into how to diversify your resume and avoid getting pigeonholed into a specialty, especially earlier on in your career, and how to find your unique "it" factor and stand out.
