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.
