What’s been your career path while at Prudential?

I completed an Actuarial internship at Prudential during the summer between my junior and senior year of college working in the Individual Life Insurance Reinsurance solutions team as part of AIP (Actuarial Internship Program) and was subsequently offered a full-time position as an actuarial Associate in ALDP (Actuarial Leadership Development Program). I immediately accepted the offer because I had a very rewarding internship experience at Prudential. I am currently in my first ALDP rotation working in the Modeling Center of Excellence (COE).

What's one thing you love about working in Newark?

What I love the most about Newark is its historic nature. The aesthetics and the architecture of the city is very different from any other city I’ve lived in. It’s easy to notice that the city is quickly developing while maintaining its historic feel.
