2021 Student Spotlights
Minor: Finance
Current Internship: Capital One – Management Intern. This summer I conducted industry & peer research, built in-house ESG objectives, & led strategy meetings for External Affairs.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you: From pulling back the curtain and giving me insight into the career hunt, to introducing me to professionals in private equity, the Boehly Center was the decisive factor in my professional success. Not only did I leave meetings with Melanie & Morgan more confident in my potential, but through programs like DoG Street to Wall Street the Boehly Center reframed my ethereal vision of a “future in finance” into tangible goals. I will always be grateful for the coaching on navigating sensitive conversations with employers and for the countless meetings spent meticulously packing my resume with “power verbs”. Thank you Boehly Center!
Current Internship/Upcoming Job:
Summer 2020: Ernst & Young DSG & Girls Who Invest OIP Scholar
Summer 2021: UBS Global Markets Summer Analyst
Post Graduation: UBS Global Markets Analyst
How has the Boehly Center impacted you: I am so thankful how Boehly shaped my experience not only as a student but also as a student leader at the Women in Business Club (WIB). As a student, I was privileged to take the Hedge Fund Management course with Prof. Siano and to learn hands-on financial modeling and valuation skills from the completely free Training the Street program. The Women's Leadership Summit and the DoG to Wall Conference connected me with wonderful alumni and broadened my understanding of the financial industry in a practical way.
One of my favorite undergrad experiences is being a part of the WIB family with all the motivated, sweet, and intelligent women. Dannita shared invaluable advice with us to better serve the WIB community, and she also developed the weekly leadership series for all board members to learn from each other last semester (Topics included: Servant Leadership, Setting Boundaries, etc.).
As WIB’s VP of mentorship, I co-run the Peer Mentorship Program with two other program coordinators from other Boehly clubs. We are so passionate about building the bridge to connect high-achieving upperclassmen with younger peers who were in their shoes before, and we pair mentor-mentee pairs based on similar career interests for all business majors starting this year. The most touching part of the program is to see how mentees explored different career possibilities, practiced networking skills, worked on a resume, and, ultimately, secured an offer early on with the help from their mentors. All of these would not happen without the support from the WIB community, my two teammates, and Dannita, Morgan, and Dezire from the Boehly Center!
Recent Internship: Fidelity Investments: I interned at the Tysons Corner branch this summer as a Personal Investing intern. I loved my time with Fidelity so much I’m beyond excited to join the team full-time this upcoming summer as a Financial Representative!
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?: I cannot thank the Boehly Center enough; they are the most supportive, resourceful, and invaluable group of people I’ve had the pleasure to interact with at William & Mary! I relied heavily on Morgan Hutter this past winter break as I searched for a summer internship, and she went above and beyond to provide the most lucrative guidance possible. She thoroughly prepped me for each interview, giving me feedback on my mock interview responses, and ensured I felt 100% confident in myself before speaking with each firm. Aside from a deep-seated commitment to student success, what really makes the Boehly Center special is its extensive alumni connections. They put me in contact with a plethora of William & Mary alumni currently employed at the firms I applied to, all incredibly eager to speak with me and answer my questions. Most, if not all, kept in touch, providing genuine support and encouragement throughout my internship search. As a mentor in the Peer Mentorship Program, I strived to offer the same level of quality advice and resources to my mentees. With everything I’ve compiled and learned from the Boehly Center, they made my job quite easy! Ultimately, I can’t express how appreciative I am of the team of individuals at the Boehly Center; I truly would not have found such a perfectly suited and rewarding opportunity at Fidelity without their continued assistance and optimism!
Current/Upcoming Experience: In the summer of 2022, I will be interning in the Audit department at KPMG in Boston, MA. I am also currently conducting bilingual education research with a professor in the W&M School of Education; we submitted our first collaborative paper last month, and we are submitting our second paper at the end of the Fall semester.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?: My experience with the Boehly Center has been limited to my work with Ms. Hutter and Ms. Trice, who advised me in my job search for 2022. After the first time we met and spoke to one another, the advisors at the Boehly Center provided me with a list of W&M alumni who worked at various firms in which I was interested. They guided me through the various processes of reaching out to alumni, setting up informational interviews, preparing questions, and eventually entering the hiring process. It was directly through their work with me that I was able to get in contact with a Boston recruiter at KPMG, where I applied for and was offered a summer audit position. My internship search was frustrating until I was introduced to the Boehly Center. Their advising style is incredibly organized and logical, they respond early and often, and, on the off chance that they don't know the answer to my question, they know who does. I have never had an advisor on whom I have relied more readily and more comfortably than Ms. Hutter and Ms. Trice; I would recommend them to students of any graduating class or major.
Current Internship: J.P. Morgan - Middle Market Commercial Banking Team
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?: My first experience with the Boehly Center was during my sophomore year when I went to New York City as part of the Cohen Career Center Wall Street Program. This was an incredible opportunity that enabled me to learn about a number of finance disciplines and work on my early networking skills, which thankfully have improved since! The Boehly Center also connected me to an amazing and inspirational group of women through the Women in Business community, one that I now call my home at William & Mary and serve as President. We focus on career exploration and empowerment, connecting the next generation of leaders with their futures.
Current Internship: Credit Suisse IB (Financial Sponsors Group)
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?: Without the Boehly Center, I likely would not have discovered what I wanted to do within the vast world of finance.

Due to their commitment to William & Mary students, I have been able to excel in and out of the academic environment.
Current Internship: Business Consulting Program at Ernst & Young (EY)
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?: There have been so many networking and personal growth opportunities within the Boehly Center! I am a member of Women in Business and have participated in their mentor program as a mentee and mentor. My junior summer I also completed the Mason Summer Business Institute. The program gave me opportunities to learn about interviewing, networking and specific skills regarding my major. This past fall, I was in the interview stage for summer internships and the Boehly Center pointed me in the right direction for how to prepare as well as conducted mock interviews tailored to me.
Jennifer Feng, a junior with double majors in Finance and Economics, shared, "I'm very excited to be on the team and can't wait to see what I can gain from this journey." Jennifer is joined by first-year student Joanne Hu -- a talkative, Boba tea-addicted ENFP currently considering a major in Computer Science. Sandy Kelso (bottom), a rising junior from Vero Beach, Florida studying art & art history, is interested in a career in marketing and sales for private and public art collections. The three are joined by their fellow teammate, Molly Gaffney.
We wish Jennifer, Joanne, Molly & Sandy the best of luck in September!
Previous Internship: Investment Analyst at Cedar Hill Capital Management
Upcoming Job: Private Bank Full-Time Analyst Program at J.P. Morgan Chase
How has the Boehly Center impacted you? I am the Team Captain of the William & Mary Men’s Gymnastics Team. My journey with the Boehly Center and Ms. Hutter specifically started shortly before Winter Break. We had an initial call that was high-level guidance on how to approach a job search. From there, she connected me with several alumni and that began to frame how I was thinking about my career coming out of undergrad. The alumni were incredibly helpful in giving advice to me that I took into great consideration. The Boehly Center and I met several times over the next month’s sometimes with little notice, but they always made themselves available and were willing to help specifically around the time of my SuperDay for J.P. Morgan. JPM gave me only a few days notice on when my SuperDay was and with such a busy schedule, the only day I could do a mock interview was the weekend. Despite that, Ms. Hutter was there to support me once again and we ran through a full mock interview on a Saturday. She gave me her full attention throughout and provided insightful feedback afterwards. The Boehly Center really went above and beyond in supporting me throughout my job hunt, and I am incredibly grateful for their mentorship.
Current Internship: This upcoming summer, I will be interning with Curtis Process Consulting, LLC as a Summer Analyst where I will be advising clients on optimizing their financial performances through the powers of process and data science. I was also incredibly lucky to have externed with the firm through the 2021 Futures Externship Program in January. During the summer, I will also be completing the Online Intensive Program at Girls Who Invest.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?The Boehly Center has helped me tremendously not only in my academic journey, but also in my professional career. As a freshman, my interest in finance sparked after joining Women in Business, Finance Academy, Mason Investment Fund, and Smart Woman Securities, and hearing from numerous professionals through DoG to Wall Street, Training the Street, Women's Stock Pitch and Leadership Summit, and other events. These events have truly broadened my scope of the finance industry as well as its applications to technology. Through the Boehly Center, I also had the pleasure of meeting Pocket Sun ('13), the Founder and Co-President of SoGal Foundation and through her, I was able to learn more about the fields of venture capital and private equity. As the Chapter Lead of SoGal Williamsburg, my passion for female empowerment and bringing diversity to venture capital grew stronger and demonstrated the strength of the Mason alumni network at William & Mary. The Boehly Center has truly shaped who I am as an individual in the business world.
Current Internship: I am currently interning at NRV as a Venture Capital Spring Analyst. At NRV, I've had the opportunity to evaluate many investment opportunities as well as prepare valuation analyses for the fund’s portfolio companies. This upcoming summer, I will be a Summer Intensive Program Scholar at Girls who Invest.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you? My first interaction with the Boehly Center was my freshman fall when I joined Smart Woman Securities. This was an influential first step in gaining exposure to finance because I was able to learn about financial basics, present a stock pitch, and meet upperclassmen who had experience in finance, all before actually taking any finance classes at the business school. Since then, I have had the opportunity to network with alumni at DoG Street to Wall Street and meet other finance alumni through the Boehly Center's network. More recently, I have become a member of the Women’s Stock Pitch Team as well as a Finance Academy Vice President. I cannot thank the Boehly Center enough for providing me a supportive environment where I can further my professional and personal development, in addition to allowing me to explore my various finance interests through seminars and workshops!
Current Internship/Upcoming Job: This upcoming summer I’ll be in San Fransisco working as a Financial Planning analyst for Fremont Group. This past semester I also had the opportunity to work under Dr. Atanasov as a TA for Financial Management.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you: The Boehly Center has been my north star during these past few months. When COVID struck and the internship I had lined up was canceled, the Boehly Center allowed me to spend my summer refining my technical and soft skills at their Summer Business Institute instead of wasting away on my couch.
SBI helped figure what I wanted to do with my degree and taught me exactly what to do in order to get there. After hundreds of hours of cold calls and what seemed like a million applications I finally landed a few first round interviews, which the Boehly Center helped me translate into offers. From exclusive information sessions to resume construction and even mock interview practice, I can confidently say I would not be working for Fremont without the Boehly Center.

Current Internship: I will be spending this upcoming summer in JPMorgan’s Middle Market Banking Summer Analyst Program. While the program starts in June, I have enjoyed meeting my future teammates through Zoom chats and the interview process.
I spent last summer working at Tysons Corner boutique FOCUS Investment Banking building pitchbooks, writing industry reports, and constructing DCF and LBO models.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?: I first interacted with the Boehly Center as a freshman when my track and field teammate and Finance Academy President Duncan Goodrich met with me and stressed the importance of networking, getting involved in Boehly Center clubs, and taking the initiative.
Since that conversation, I have pitched a stock in the Mason Investment Club, conducted undergraduate research with Dr. Vladimir Atanasov, participated in networking events such as the DoG Street to Wall Street and the Wall Street Program, and utilized the Boehly Center’s amazing staff and LinkedIn group to connect with alumni.
Through these activities I have gained knowledge of different financial careers, developed my analytical and research skills, and learned how to talk to professionals. My experience with the Boehly Center has been just as valuable to my professional development as my finance courses themselves. I now look to pay this knowledge forward to younger students as I start my second year as a Finance Academy Vice President.
Minor: Accounting
Current Internship: I am currently working part time at IBM. My main role focuses on cost accrued from IBM's royalty deals. I am also a specialist with IBMs new database, so I work on projects aimed at acclimating co-workers to the new system
Co-oping at IBM was a phenomenal experience that developed my excel skills and showed me what life after college would look like. After a few days of training I was integrated into a team of skilled financial analysts that worked with me for the duration of the co-op. It was on this team that I projected future forecasts, utilized a multitude of databases, and led team projects. I learned all the necessary skills while on the job which is a testament to their work culture. I was encouraged to take on tasks I had no experience in and to ask questions that challenged the status quo. Overall, it was an astounding opportunity I would recommend to anyone pursuing a career in business.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you?: I would never have found out about the opportunity to work at IBM without the Boehly center. I found out about the opportunity through one of their newsletters.

Current Internship: I am currently wrapping up an internship in asset management with Fidelity Investments. The internship was structured so that I was able to rotate through all six of Fidelity's asset classes and partake in the analytical process of investing in various portfolios.
How has the Boehly Center impacted you: I can attribute a lot of my academic and professional development to the Boehly Center. As a freshman, I joined Smart Woman Securities and learned about fundamental analysis and stock pitching before I even attended the block classes my sophomore year. Joining this organization helped me succeed at countless interviews, internship projects, and networking events. Moreover, the various networking opportunities, such as the Women's Stock Pitch and Leadership Summit, allowed me to network with alumni from various companies I was interested in. The seminars hosted by Finance Academy and Women In Business help me broaden my perspective on the financial world. I am a new member of the Financial Literacy Program, and through this, I have been given an opportunity to directly give back to the students on campus and help promote financial literacy. As the current president of Smart Woman Securities, I am able to interact with many new Boehly members and organize valuable seminars — the Boehly Center stands out because it creates a culture of students helping students.
