Episode notes
For February, we host yet another successful woman from the economics department's graduate program, Mollie Markham . After a brief learning experience pursuing politics at the front lines in DC, she discovered what she doesn't want in a career. Fully embracing that lesson and, with some great counsel from family, she entered DePaul's graduate program. The rest is or will be legend as Mollie is now a Program Specialist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago . Her timing could not have had better, as she entered this role at the start of one of the Feds biggest developments in 50 years; the building of a new instant payment system called FedNOW . Happy, successful, and working on really cool stuff. That's the recipe for a good life right there.
