Head in the Cloud.
Xander is a Junior and an analyst in the Ohio University Student Equity Management Group. He is from Milan, Ohio, and is pursuing a quadruple major in Finance, Accounting, Data Analytics, and Business Pre-Law. Within the group, Xander really enjoys the teamwork aspect, as that is the basis of all the work that the group does. He enjoys networking with current members, as well as alumni, in order to continue to develop professionally and socially. OUSEMG has enabled Xander to broaden his connections and learn a lot about the finance world that cannot be taught within the classroom.
Outside of OUSEMG, Xander is also a member of the Ohio University Division 2 Club Hockey Team. He is the finance chair for the team, so he spends time creating a budget for team trips, as well as allocating money for things such as travel, lodging, team meals, etc.
During the summer of 2024, Xander spent his time as an Operational Accounting intern for Six Flags Entertainment Corporation, where he spent lots of time writing up fixed assets, depreciating long-term projects, and helping to ensure a smooth merger process between Six Flags and Cedar. During the summer of 2025, Xander will be interning for EY as a Digital Risk Consulting Intern, where he hopes to gain real-world experience by working with clients to solve complex problems in the areas of cloud, IT internal controls, cybersecurity, third-party risk management, and emerging technology risks.
