A LOOK AT OUR STUDENTS<br />
Zach Spencer is a<br />
senior majoring in<br />
finance.<br />
As a freshman, Zach decided to apply for<br />
membership to <strong>FMA</strong> in its first recruiting<br />
season “It was great,” says Spencer, “I was<br />
the only freshman in the inaugural class<br />
and wasn’t sure what area of finance I<br />
wanted to pursue or how to begin preparing<br />
for my future. <strong>FMA</strong> was instrumental in<br />
all aspects of my growth, from creating an<br />
impactful cover letter to preparing<br />
for investment banking interviews.<br />
Membership also provided talented peer<br />
mentors and opportunities to compete<br />
in case competitions.” Zach will continue<br />
serving as an executive member of <strong>FMA</strong><br />
in his senior year while also filling the<br />
role as president of the Auburn Student<br />
Investment Fund (ASIF).<br />

This summer, Zach will intern at SunTrust<br />
Robinson Humphrey (STRH) as a Portfolio<br />
Management Summer Analyst. Spencer<br />
will support analysts in cash flow analyses<br />
and underwriting credits for STRH clients.<br />
Zach intends to work hard and learn as<br />
much as he can by utilizing the skills he<br />
has acquired: “I hope to gain a deeper<br />
understanding of financial modeling and<br />
the underwriting process through my<br />
experience this summer.”<br />
Zach is looking forward to the continued<br />
growth of <strong>FMA</strong>. “I’m excited to see<br />
<strong>FMA</strong> develop as more talented students<br />
are drawn to the organization and our<br />
members continue to land impressive<br />
spots in the industry. I can only imagine<br />
what we will accomplish.”<br />
