Tell us about your new career in finance.
I lead the strategic business development function
for Payoneer. I connect with corporate partners to
strengthen the presence of Payoneer as a Tier 1
international payments solution provider. At Hult,
I learned to understand the core needs of different
stakeholders.
What is your biggest takeaway from Hult?
The constant networking and frequent teamwork
provided me with a strong interpersonal skill set.
I am comfortable being dropped in a room full of
strangers and can be confident that I will walk out
with more than just a few potential business deals.
