In the first segment of this two-part podcast, Brent describes the fateful meeting that changed his career and pioneered a whole new life science industry practice. He traces his journey to that point and how he looked out with excitement — and no small degree of discomfort — at where this opportunity was heading.

That’s why industry specialization is at the heart of the CLA Promise. And it’s why today our health care specialists include actual health care advice along with financial services.
