"At S.E.E.D., we believe investing goes far beyond stocks and bonds — some of our most meaningful investments are in people. For the past three years, we’ve proudly partnered with the New Visions Program through Broome-Tioga BOCES, a highly competitive and academically rigorous opportunity for college-bound high school seniors interested in careers in business, health, engineering, law, or government.
Once selected, New Visions students are placed with local organizations to gain real-world experience, working alongside professionals and participating in hands-on learning. This year, we were honored to host five outstanding students from Vestal, Whitney Point, Endwell, and Windsor High Schools — all with a keen interest in business and finance.
One of our guiding principles at S.E.E.D. is, “When we show up, we show up.” True to that, we designed an immersive experience for our students that included a series of specialized workshops led by our team:
✅ Dave Nirchi, Chief Operating Officer – Business Strategy & Management
✅ Kerstin Driscoll Witt, Senior Retirement Plan Navigator – Retirement Plans & Financial Education
✅ Emmy Shafer, Senior Manager, Admin & Operations – S.E.E.D. Administrative & Operational Insight
✅ Steve Campbell, Senior Marketing Director – Marketing & Business Development
✅ Jeff Chase, Senior Vice President, Financial Planning – Financial Planning in Practice
✅ Brad Eaton, Senior Vice President, Investment Services – Vision & Strategy in Investment Management
