Showing impact and growth at work is very important. Are you also involved in activities outside of work? What are your long term goals?

I'm an advisor for my local fraternities chapter, avid racquet sports enthusiast, and help out young adults with disabilities on the weekends. Medium term, I'd like to exit out of consulting back into the asset based lending space. Long term (15+ years), I'd like to get into teaching academia. (0)
