“My Summer Internship at Courier Capital allowed me to experience what it was like to work with an RIA [Registered Investment Advisor], and how it aligned with the kind of environment I wanted to work in. I was able to apply the equity research skills I learned in school while being surrounded by experienced professionals who gave constructive feedback.”
