I was a business/Spanish major working with Prof. Casals and Karson. I actually
crafted my own major and worked out the classes with both my business and Spanish
advisors.
I currently work at the U. S. Trust Co. of NY as a Senior Vice President head
of a dept. and am a private banker. I use my Spanish skills from time to time
with clients that speak that language. I used my skills more frequently when I
worked for the Bank Of New York 13 yrs. ago as we had more clients there from
South America. I have found it to be very helpful over the years with clients
and they appreciate speaking in their native language. I also find that working
in NYC and speaking Spanish in general is an asset.
