After decades of success in banking and wealth management, Brian Ruszczyk ’88 pivoted to leadership in the alt-protein sector as cofounder and CEO of Earth First Food Ventures. Ruszczyk recently shared advice for Dickinson students preparing to lead in a fast-changing, global marketplace.
In his advice, he asserted the importance of Dickinson’s global education and noted that the college’s engaged alumni networks extend around the world. Ruszczyk urged students to make the most of internships and other job-building opportunities by building up strong international professional networks through Dickinson.
“I think it's the biggest asset of the college, and it's a huge asset for the current student body,” Ruszczyk said.
