Ep. 35: Judith Lagrou - M.Ed. in Higher Education Turned Investment Banking Strategist

  • Résumé

  • Judith finished grad school with a passion for increasing student retention. As she spent more time — and moved up the ladder — in higher ed administration, she became equally committed to expanding access.

    And she did, indeed, make retention and access top priorities in positions across student affairs, development, and international education. But what appeared to be a perfect career progression on paper was not in practice. 

    That’s when Judith, for the first time, looked beyond the ivory tower for work. Within a few years in finance, she had the opportunity to transfer to investment banking, where she now relishes the quick pace of change and ability to solve complex problems. 

    Had she not taken the time to question what she valued in her work, Judith may have never considered if careers outside of higher ed could be a better fit.
