Career: Portfolio Management Officer, Bank of America Merrill Lynch

In a nutshell, what do you do?

I analyze middle market companies and determine the best credit solutions that will meet our client’s needs. I am a cash flow lender, so I spend a majority of time modeling out projections and monitoring our current portfolio.

Why do you love what you do?

I love what I do because I get to be involved with all different types of transactions. One day I am working on a simple working capital line of credit and the next we are financing a large acquisition with multiple levels of debt. I have clients that are private and public across a variety of industries, so every day I get the opportunity to learn something new.

How did Albion help you get there?

Albion helped me with the one on one attention I received from professors. I had the opportunity to interact with professors and fellow students at a personal level which helped my academic and professional growth. My professors were all very helpful and really encouraged me to stop in their office at any time.

For me, Albion ...

... Was a fantastic way place to grow in all aspects of my life. I made friends that will last a lifetime and had a lot of great academic experiences. Albion really pushed a well-rounded curriculum, and that is just what I feel I received during my four years there. Go Brits!
