Every year, La Sierra University hosts a Meet the Firms Night, an event where business and students get to interact and develop their networks.  Unfortunately, people come to the event wearing the most basic corporate attire, students and businesses included.  However, there were some individuals who stood out to me among the sea of boring black suits.
