Ethan Lin – Financial Analyst, MBA Scholar

Hi, my name is Ethan Lin. I’m currently a MBA graduate student at RIT. I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Finance in 2023. I chose to venture into MBA program because I wanted to further venture into the professional world. As a student during my time at RIT, I was part of the RIT Cosplay Troupe and served as part of the executive board (E-Board) as treasurer from May of 2021 to May of 2022.

I’ve had experience in the finance world in different industries. During my undergraduate career, I had the opportunity to work at Superior Plus Energy Services at Rochester, NY from May of 2022 to December of 2022. I learned how to use my newly gained accounting skills to file taxes and licenses for the company in various U.S states.

During my MBA career, I worked at OTG Management in Jamaica, NY from June of 2024 to August of 2024. I learned how to compile various data such invoices, daily sales. cost of goods sold (COGS), and purachse to sales (PTS). I even undertook a special project on analysing customer behavior by using sales in various restaurant concepts.

Jake Hamacher : MBA Student-Athlete

Hey everyone! My name is Jake Hamacher and I am an MBA Student at Rochester Institute of Technology. I graduated last year from RIT with a major in Finance and a minor in Public Relations and Advertising. I also play on the Division I hockey team here at RIT, and this is my 5thyear on the team. Due to Covid-19, athletes were given an extra year of eligibility, so I figured I might as well put that extra year to good use and get an MBA!

Background

I am originally from Southern California, where I lived until I was 16. In order to follow my dream of playing Division I hockey, I played all over America until committing to RIT. I’ve lived in Washington state, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin before finally arriving in beautiful Rochester, NY. I always knew I wanted to get a degree in something business-related, and Finance intrigued and interested me the most.

Experience and the Future 

During the summer of 2019, I was able to co-op at Northwestern Mutual as a financial representative, which taught me a lot, but also left me hungry to learn more. After my playing days are over, I want to somehow work with athletes and help them navigate their finances, hopefully as a financial representative who specializes in working with athletes. I don’t know if anyone reading this has seen the HBO show Ballers, but that seems like a pretty good life!

Lucas Labuski-MBA Student

By Lucas Labuski

Hello, my name is Lucas Labuski, but most people call me Luke. I am originally from Horseheads, New York, but have recently relocated to Rochester. I am currently in my final semester of my Masters of Business Administration with a concentration in Finance at RIT. I received my undergraduate degree in Accounting from Keuka College. During my time at Keuka, I was a four year captain on the golf team, a member of three Honor Societies, an Admissions Ambassador, and also the Founding President of the Keuka College Investment Club, which I was able to grow from 4 members to over 35, as well as secured over $5,000 from outside investors to allow the club to start trading. Upon my graduation this fall, I hope to work as a Certified Financial Planner or a Portfolio Trader for ETFs for a major competitor of the industry. Most of my personal trading experience has come in the form of ETFs, mainly leveraged ETFs. During my senior year at Keuka, I placed 17th out of 1,000 students from across the globe in the ETFG Global Portfolio Challenge. Last fall I once again competed in the ETFG Global Portfolio Challenge and placed 3rd out of 1,000, and also led the competition for four out of the ten weeks. My strategy for both competitions is very similar to my strategy that I use in my personal investments, which tends to favor technology and biotech ETFs. Please take a minute to review my resume, as well as connect with me on LinkedIn.
