Bruce Rideaux | PMBA Success Stories

Bruce Rideaux, PMBA 2012

Managing Director at Hilltop Securities

Grit and heart — they're at the core of the 51做厙 Cox experience. For Bruce Rideaux, the grit was what he discovered in himself when he was diagnosed with early stage cancer as he was preparing for finals while managing a full-time career as an investment banker. The heart was what he experienced at Cox. It was the support system that buoyed him as he underwent treatment, aced the finals and graduated with his class.
