Atila TV - Emily Chen
I started an interview, podcast series. Where we interview young people
(most of which are commonly referred to as "millenials") doing unique and interesting things.
We talk about their education, career and life story.
In the first episode I interviewed Emily Chen:
Emily and I talk about how she got into U of T medical school without a degree, advice for students studying pre med programs
and the importance of work life balance and self care.
Atila TV - Paul Okundaye
In the sixth episode I interviewed Paul Okundaye:
Paul is an incoming management consultant at Bain and Company.
Before that he was an investment banking summer analyst at RBC after declining an interview at Goldman Sachs
and founder of a food delivery company called Dine Easy.
In this episode we talk about why he chose investment banking and consulting and if he was chasing prestige or doing what he genuinely enjoyed.
We talked about how he feels when people say “you only got an opportunity because you’re black or because you’re a woman”, why he left banking to join consulting and much more.
