“I have been working with institutional investors for 20 years to incorporate diverse talent into their private market portfolios. Investors who embrace diversity are not only doing the right thing but are likely optimizing their range of investment returns.”
“I'm a woman, a mom, a non-native English-language speaker, and come from an educational background that isn't related to finance. I count myself lucky that I'm working at a company that gives me the freedom to be my authentic self.”
“I began my professional career in the military and during that time I developed a deep appreciation for how valuable a team-based culture is in helping an organization accomplish great things. It gives me confidence that Barings will continue to experience great success in a fast-changing industry knowing that we too put high value on a team-based culture.”
