Jennifer von Briesen, CAIA

I was a little apprehensive when I registered to take the CAIA Level I Exam since I started preparing late in the year and wasn’t sure if I’d have enough time to complete the lengthy and rigorous study required to pass. It wasn’t a work requirement, but I wanted to build my knowledge and acumen to contribute more value in my role as Head of Strategy Implementation, Alternative Investments at MassMutual.
