Bio: Matthew Case is a Senior living in George Hall. He began investing his own money at the age of 17, only to learn some costly mistakes early on. Matt is a dual major in Economics and Business Administration with a concentration in Finance. He spent last spring and summer interning at the Merrill Lynch offices in Pittsford, New York as well as Syracuse. While working first hand with financial advisors, he learned the art of asset management and was exposed to various types of investments. Matt owned and operated a marketing company with a friend called Par 4 Advertising. Together they advertised on local area golf courses in the CNY area, where he learned first-hand the experiences of a small business in America. At Nazareth, he competes on the track and field teams and enjoys skiing and snowmobiling in the winter.
