Alumni Voices

In May of 2024 I graduated from TCU with a degree in Finance with minors in Economics and FinTech. During my Junior and Senior year I interned at a family office hedge fund in downtown Fort Worth as a credit analyst and upon graduation accepted a full time roll with the firm as a financial control analyst which is where I work currently.

I am in the spring semester of my junior year at Texas A&M University with a communications major. I’ve joined a men’s organization where I continue to expand my social network and learn more about what the school has to offer. Along with studying and keeping up with my classes, I spend time at the gym and have been doing some traveling around Texas.

Since graduating from the College of Wooster with a bachelor's in geology, I've had the opportunity to work in environmental roles at various levels of government. I recently began a new position with the Federal Highway Administration and previously worked as an environmental scientist for the Ohio Department of Transportation for two and a half years. My work focuses on ensuring that the natural and built environments of Ohio are protected while working with partners to fund meaningful transportation projects.

After 18 years at Post Oak, I am excited to be halfway through my sophomore year at The University of Oklahoma. As a fourth-generation Sooner studying finance, I have thoroughly enjoyed getting involved in different organizations around campus including Wall Street Sooners, Brothers Under Christ (social fraternity), The OU Investing Club, Campus Tour Guide, JCPenney Leadership Program, The OU Clay Target Team, and more! This summer, I am excited to join Truist bank as a credit intern in their Dallas office and I am currently in the interview process for multiple competitive investment banks in Houston for a summer 2026 internship opportunity.

I graduated from Carleton College in Northfield, MN, with a major in Biology and a pre-med focus in June 2021.

I currently work to conduct translational neuro-immunology research aimed at elucidating mechanisms of brain cancer response and resistance to treatment and therapy.
