“I joined CI as an intern back in 2020... a few years later and I am still here today as a full-time employee. Working for CI has not only given me valuable career experience but also shown me why Connecticut can be such an amazing place to live, work and play. I love working directly with our portfolio companies and finding new ways to engage with the ecosystem.”
