What does a day in your life look like working at PNC Bank?

A day in my life starts pretty early because I have two kids. I'm hanging out with them, paying attention to them, but I'm also listening to what's going on in the market. New York opens at 6:30 Pacific time.

After that, I probably get into the office and have two or three meetings. These are either market-related or client portfolio management related. Then I have another one to two meetings that are more about business development and relationship strategy.

My work is about two-thirds independent and one-third group work. I also manage four or five different analysts who take care of various tasks in portfolio management. Some of that involves quality checking, and some involves teaching and mentoring.
