Brian Robertson '04

Business Administration
     Brian is a Managing Director at Laidlaw & Company, which is the second oldest brokerage firm in the United States. “Elmira College prepared me very well for my career. I had great professors like Alison Wolfe, Jim Mullen, and Phil Hurdle,” Brian says. He also credits his successful career to being a part of the basketball team, “I feel that being part of a sports team and going through the ups and downs that go along with winning and losing help you in future endeavors. One thing I look for when I hire recent graduates is if they have experience working in a team setting like sports or business organizations, such as SIFE (Students in a Free Enterprise).”
