Eudald Canadell: Finding Minnesota
"Arriving from Spain," says Eudald Canadell, 1988 M.S., "I found Minneapolis a city with great art, music, cinema, and a welcoming population." Later, Canadell found the U in unexpected places. "I had a meeting with a Standard & Poors representative who held a Ph.D. from Minnesota. We immediately hit it off."
Education is a Frame of Mind
Today Canadell is director of Standard & Poors Index Service Europe and divides his time between Paris and London. "With S&P the quality of the people is amazing. It is a pleasure to work them," says Canadell. And how did the U prepare him? "The best thing I got was the frame of mind that made me capable of handling many different things."
