Sara Atehortua Diaz '18

Product Manager

Nuveen

Sara Atehortua ’18 attended Norwalk Community College and transferred to UCONN Stamford in Fall of 2016. She graduated from UCONN in the Fall of 2018 majoring in Financial Management.

Sara was lucky enough to be employed by Northern Trust even before she graduated. She had been an investment analyst within Asset Management. Her current role is as a product manager for the company Nuveen.

Over the years Sara has learned the importance of networking. For that reason, being a member in several networking groups is a big part of her life. She is an active member in various organizations including Mujeres de HACE (board member), Ellevate, 100 Women in Finance, NICSA Diversity Project and ALPFA. Sara was fortunate enough to find her mentor in one of these organizations.

“My mentor has inspired, motivated, and served as my role model. I hope with this program I am able to do the same for someone else.”
