Morgan Cartledge portrait with Pavel Solin

Department of Mathematics and Statistics Faculty mentor: Pavel Solin

Summary

What are your plans after graduating?

After graduation, I plan to work full time for Nevada Wealth Management - a private wealth management team backed by UBS Financial Services. I have always been interested in the financial industry, and I am excited to gain experience and connections. I have been working part time here for about six months now, and I am looking forward to contributing as much as I can to the team.

What is the most important piece of advice you’d give to an incoming college freshman?

My most important piece of advice for incoming freshman is to get involved in the University and find interests and groups to explore outside of academics. As a freshman, I was not very involved. Then, due to COVID, my next two years were the same by default. The one thing I regret in my college career is not participating in clubs and activities that brought me joy.

Where do you see yourself in fifteen years?

I can’t imagine what my life will be like in 15 years. I feel as though I have endless opportunities ahead of me, but it is challenging to decide on a path. I am hoping to take some time after graduation to explore different hobbies and passions, from which I can decide how I want to spend the rest of my life.
