Why should you read the author's bio of a book? Where do we find the most compelling and powerful story from our lived experiences? How do you protect your own memory when telling a story about your past? This week, we chat with Carrie Sun, author of Private Equity, a memoir from her unique experience working for a Wall Street hedge fund billionaire and her deeply personal self-discovery journey. Carrie Sun was born in China and raised in Michigan. She holds an MFA in creative writing from The New School. She graduated early from MIT, worked as a quant, dropped out of MBA, worked in one of the most prestigious hedge funds in the world, and left to become a writer.
