<strong>FMA</strong> HOUSTON<br />
54 <strong>FMA</strong> <strong>2019</strong>-<strong>2021</strong> MAGAZINE<br />
In an effort to expand recruiting and placement efforts,<br />
<strong>FMA</strong> added a student trip to Houston this year. Fourteen<br />
students had the opportunity to network and attend info sessions with elite firms.<br />
The first day of visits included Bank of America, Moelis & Company and Goldman<br />
Sachs. The following day, the group attended info sessions with Credit Suisse,<br />
McKinsey and Evercore. These corporate visits were made possible by involved<br />
Auburn alumni including David Andrews, Jordan Carr, James Casey and Mustafa<br />
Ali.<br />
This visit was an important initiative by Auburn <strong>FMA</strong> to diversify and expand its<br />
corporate network. Since this visit, three of the fourteen students that attended<br />
the trek have or will intern with an investment bank in Houston. Also, through this<br />
trip we were able to connect with David Andrews, a Senior Managing Director at<br />
Evercore, who returned to Auburn as a featured <strong>2019</strong> Financial Leadership Summit<br />
executive panelist.<br />
Outside of the corporate offices, students had the opportunity to experience the<br />
culinary culture of Houston at El Tiempo, a classic, and The Union Kitchen where<br />
we were treated to dinner with the Spiwak family, whose daughter Lauren is an<br />
<strong>FMA</strong> alum.
