Tony Venditti from South Street Securities recently had the honor of speaking at Baruch College, providing invaluable advice to the next generation of finance professionals in their FIN3000 class.

John Bowden, Professor at Baruch College, invites Tony to speak annually in his class and gives students with the rare opportunity to learn from a seasoned professional. The session invited undergraduate students to ask Tony specific questions about the finance industry as well as advice on navigating today's business environment. 

It was such a pleasant surprise when I found out Tony would be speaking in my class and I was thrilled to help capture the moment. It was a full-circle experience for me. Listening to someone I previously worked with as an intern now share insights in an academic setting reminded me how interconnected the professional world truly is.
