MD, High-Grade Municipal Trading
Wells Fargo Securities
While her college peers were gravitating toward internships in investment banking, Annie Cheslin found herself drawn to the buzz of the trading floor.
She landed her first job trading municipal bonds for Wells Fargo in 2012, and the buzz continues to pull her in more than a decade later.
"You walk onto a trading floor, people are engaged in conversation everywhere around you," said Cheslin, who is now a managing director on the bank's high-grade institutional desk. "You have to be able to be in two conversations at once and have what they call 'bond ears' to be able to hear what's going on around you."
