Nicholas Burko

Nicholas grew up in Manhattan, the world’s financial capital. Nicholas became intrigued in

business at an early age. Nicholas’ quest to learn about this lifeblood of the city and the nation led him to

enroll, in eleventh grade, in his first economics course. In that economics course, Nicholas’ love for finance

and business was fostered. At the end of the semester, the students were tasked with creating a stock

portfolio. Not long thereafter, he created a portfolio of 40 stocks to eliminate sector-specific and stock-

specific risk. Nicholas thought that it was the most influential project of his high school career. Nicholas

was hooked and knew that he wanted to pursue a career in finance, which led him to apply early decision to

Syracuse University’s Martin J. Whitman School of Management.

Assistant Treasurer of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity on campus where he implements cost saving measures

for the organization’s long-term financial health.

This past summer, Nicholas served as a Commercial Banking Summer Intern at Bank Leumi USA.

He worked for the International & Technology Banking Group and the Credit team and reported directly to

Leumi’s National Head of Credit. In that role, Nicholas analyzed the bank’s real estate, media &

entertainment, and healthcare deals and underwrote loans.

In the summer following his sophomore year, Nicholas interned at Protocol Capital Management a

bespoke merchant bank in New York with expertise in capital placement and consulting in the alternative

investment field. Nicholas applied what he learned in the classroom freshman and sophomore years on a

daily basis by compiling performance reports and conducting investment research.

As a Senior Analyst in the Orange Value Fund, Nicholas utilizes his extraordinary leadership

Timothy Cairns

Timothy’s first exposure to finance started at a young age with his mother and fathers careers in

consumer and investment banking fields, where through dinner table conversations and countless long car

rides to ice hockey tournaments, he would always hear about the financial markets and current events. These

casual conversations spurred Timothy’s passion for finance that led him to pursue a double major in finance

and economics at the Whitman School of Management and Maxwell School at Syracuse.

In high school, Timothy’s passion for business and finance was continued with the numerous

business and economics courses that he took to increase his knowledge of the business world. These classes

lead him to create an investment club that brought together students who had varying interests in finance and

business and helped teach them the importance of investing and practice trading using a virtual stock portfolio

game. Taking advantage of all the opportunities he had, Timothy attended Bentley University’s Wall Street

101 program where he furthered his knowledge of finance and created research reports for a buy and sell

recommendation on two companies. Timothy also, completed his senior high school capstone project on

Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS), learning the types of risk involved and how they are analyzed and then

culminating the experience with a comprehensive presentation on how MBS’ and the Great Recession where

related.

Now at Syracuse, Timothy has continued taking advantage of all that is offered to him and has

become an active member of the Syracuse University Investment Club to help manage the funds $130,000

portfolio. He has also excelled in the classroom as demonstrated by his consistent recognition on the Dean’s

list. In addition to his academic and extra- curricular activities, Timothy has also become certified in basic

excel and is working on achieving his Bloomberg terminal certification. Timothy is excited to be part of the

Orange Value Fund and believes his experiences and background will be a useful asset to the fund and will

continue to help him succeed.

He interned at Ernst & Young in their structured finance advisory services program during the

summer of 2017. During his time there he worked with the CDO and CLO Transaction team. Tim gained

technical skills recalculating certain information provided in note revaluation reports to ensure accuracy with

Greg Fligor

Growing up spending Summers managing a boat cleaning business that he started on the

waters of Martha’s Vineyard, Greg learned that being successful requires a top-notch work ethic,

reliability and excellent communication skills with clients.

He identified that his competitors did not offer cleaning with scuba gear and therefore they were

limited to smaller boats, and could not offer the highest quality cleanings. After raising the necessary

funds in order to pursue his scuba certification and purchase proper scuba equipment, just a few weeks in

business he repaid all that he borrowed and within a few more weeks began to see profits. Greg developed

relationships with the island harbormasters, yacht club managers, and fleet captains and launched a

weekly marketing campaign targeted at boat owners to continue to grow the customer base which

ultimately led to the expansion of the operation and to hiring 3 new employees to keep up with the

demand for his services. The slogan that he reminded the team was, “We dive right in and go overboard

for our clients!” It was this mindset coupled with his competitiveness, and desire to be the best that has

stuck with him.

Greg works tirelessly to exemplify this hunger and drive to find success in whatever he does.

This is demonstrated by his accomplishments as a member of the US National Sailing Team representing

our country in Garda, Italy in 2011, and a two-time National Champion Snowboard Racer in 2012 and

2014. When facing a challenge or any adversity Greg does not shy away but rather he sees this as an

opportunity to step up and be a leader.

Greg’s interests for financial services can be traced back to the dinner table growing up listening

to his father discuss daily newsworthy events and how they would directly or indirectly affect what his

business. This past summer, Greg secured an internship at Credit Suisse as an Investment Banking

Summer Analyst in the New York City office. Greg plans to use all of the knowledge and experience that

he collects in order to launch a successful career in investment banking.

Taylor Kaaukai

Taylor is a finance major at the Whitman School of Management and pursuing a minor in

economics at the Maxwell School. He has always had a passion to learn, drive to succeed, and ability to

learn quickly. A family member practicing M&A law first exposed him to the financial services industry

during college, leading Taylor to an unrelenting interest in business and financial markets.

Coming from Paia, HI, Taylor was not heavily exposed to business before arriving at Azusa

Pacific University in Los Angeles. After meeting professionals in investment management, he started to

gain a new perspective on business. This led him to change majors from physics to finance during his

freshman year and join the APU Student Investment Team. There, he was able to assist in the creation of

the team’s investment strategy and portfolio as an analyst for the financial sector.

During the summer of 2015, he had an internship with Harman International Industries, Inc. in

finance and controlling. A culmination of these experiences led him to the pursuit of a career in financial

services, ultimately transferring to Syracuse University to attend a competitive business school. At

Syracuse, Taylor tutors finance to freshmen and sophomores and is an active member of the SU

Investment Club.

During the summer of 2016, Taylor was part of a rotational internship with Robert W. Baird,

completing rotations in Asset Management, Equity Research, Fixed Income, and Institutional Equities.

There, he completed multiple projects including financial modeling, industry analyses, and pitching

stocks to the America sales team.

Most recently, Taylor completed an internship at J.P. Morgan in Sales and Trading on the Cash

Equities desk for the summer of 2017. He is excited to apply his analytical skills and experience as a

senior analyst for the Orange Value Fund in the fall. He believes the combination of rigorous academics

and real experience is an unparalleled opportunity. After graduation, Taylor plans on pursuing a career in

Sales and Trading.

Refjola Malushi

Refjola was first intrigued by the world of business in middle school when she read her first 401K

statement. Growing up in an immigrant family with non-English speaking parents, she translated just about

everything to Albanian for her parents - from CNBC broadcasts and car leases to 401K statements.

Although these seemed like chores at the time, these experiences established the strong foundation of

Refjola’s knowledge and love for commerce.

Refjola capitalized her interests when she decided to major in Finance and Accounting at the Martin

J. Whitman School of Management and minor in Global Political Economy. Outside the classroom, she

utilizes her interest in Finance to create a greater good for the community by taking on the position of VP of

Fundraising for Habitat for Humanity. Refjola created detailed budgets for fundraisers by collecting invoices

as well as planned and executed community wide events to raise over $2,000.

After her sophomore year, Refjola interned with Natixis Global Asset Management (NGAM) as a

legal intern where she worked closely with lawyers and paralegals at a time when regulations on financial

companies were constantly changing. She gained exposure outside of legal such with NGAM launching

their first ETF and learning about portfolio construction.

During her junior year summer, Refjola interned at Antares Capital as a credit analyst in leveraged

finance. She put her financial modeling and leveraged finance skills to work at Antares while working on

numerous live deals that involved evaluating and structuring senior-secured and unitranche credit facilities

to support leverage buyouts, recapitalizations, and refinancings undertaken by private equity clients.

Refjola’s internships were an invaluable learning experience which excited her for the endless

learning she’ll gain at every stage of her career. Refjola looks forward to being a Senior Analyst for the

Orange Value Fund. She realizes that the best way to gain a financial education is through the real world

responsibility of managing money. All of Refjola’s experiences have allowed her passion for a career in

financial services to grow as she looks forward to further develop her skills.

Matthew Moore

Currently a Senior at Syracuse University, Matthew Moore is pursuing a major in finance from

the Whitman School of Management, as well as a major in economics from the Maxwell School of

Citizenship. Matthew spent most of his life in his hometown in Colorado, before attending a boarding

school in Cleveland, Ohio to play hockey. Upon graduating high school Matthew continued his hockey

career by playing junior hockey in New Jersey. Through his experience as a high-level, competitive

athlete he developed important leadership skills and critical-thinking skills.

Matthew’s passion for the business world started at a young age as he took an interest in his

father’s real estate company. Initially, Matthew wanted to work in the real estate industry but over the

years his interests have changed. The financial crisis had a major impact on his father’s company and

because of this he wanted to learn more about the causes of the crisis. He learned about the inner

workings of the market crash and the different institutions that were involved and the crucial role they

had. This is when Matthew became interested in pursuing a career path in financial services.

In order to follow his passions, Matthew decided to attend the Whitman School of Management

and has been an active member at Syracuse University. He has been a peer mentor at the Whitman School

of Management where he continued to develop his leadership skills, and is also a part of the Investment

Club where he has furthered developed his critical-thinking skills.

Working for the Orange Value Fund has allowed Matthew to gain real world experience as well

as an invaluable education that will help differentiate him as a candidate. After graduating, Matthew

hopes to take the knowledge and experience gained from the Orange Value Fund and pursue a career in

the financial services industry.

Michael Slutsky

Originally from Israel, Michael came to America at the age of five. He spent the majority of his

childhood in St. Louis, Missouri, before moving to New York during his sophomore year of high school.

Michael first became interested in finance when he took a macroeconomics class as a junior in high

school. The curriculum included a stock market simulation game as well as a trip to the NYSE. Shortly

after the conclusion of the class, Michael opened a brokerage account with his personal savings. He

initially began as a technical trader, but has transitioned to a more fundamental approach.

Immediately after arriving to Syracuse University as a freshman, Michael knew he needed to

work hard and learn as much as possible about the financial services industry. He began to explore the

different opportunities offered to students with a passion for finance. He joined the Syracuse University

Investment Club as a research analyst his freshman year. Shortly after, Michael successfully pitched Tesla

Motors, a trade that yielded a realized gain of 23%. Now, Michael is the Head Portfolio Manager of the

club, responsible for managing the $140,000+ portfolio.

After his freshman year, Michael interned at Ipreo, a market intelligence and analytics firm. The

following summer, Michael landed an internship at Bay Crest Partners, an institutional broker dealer. His

internship at Bay Crest gave him the knowledge to begin trading options in his personal portfolio.

This past summer, Michael interned at Tenaron Capital Management, a fixed-income relative-

value (FI-RV) boutique hedge fund. At Tenaron, Michael was a trading & treasury summer analyst.

Michael believes that the experience and knowledge he has gained thus far as an Orange Value Fund

Analyst will help him stand out among his peers. He hopes that his work ethic and passion for finance

will continue to benefit the Orange Value Fund Program.

Troy Gates

Growing up in Northern New York, Troy’s interest in business and finance started at an early age

when he began a small enterprise purchasing and selling consumer electronics. The idea of capturing

value in the market immediately appealed to him. Later in high school, he further developed his passion

for finance while discovering securities markets and competing in investment competitions.

As a finance major within Syracuse University’s Whitman School of Management, Troy has

exceled in both academic and professional environments. During the summer of 2016, after his first year

at Syracuse, he interned for Verizon’s Financial Planning and Analysis Group. There, he was responsible

for modeling the financial impact of new Fios packages and sales practices. This experience taught him to

analyze strategic initiatives from a quantitative standpoint.

Last summer, Troy worked with KeyBank’s Corporate Development and Strategy Group where

he was able to capitalize on his interest in strategic transactions. He gained his first experience in control

investing while completing due diligence on the acquisition of Cain Brothers, a healthcare focus

investment banking and public finance firm. With increased responsibility, he took a lead role in the

valuation, due diligence, and investment committee presentation for equity investments in Billtrust and

Snapsheet, payment cycle management and self-service insurance claims companies, respectively.

As a Senior Analyst in the Orange Value Fund, Troy uses his unique control investing and

transaction experience to identify opportunities for the fund.

Yuelin Xie “Lin”

Yuelin spent his first eight years in Shanghai, the major financial city of mainland China, where

his father has established an investment career. It was soon when the first-grader was given his own

brokerage account in hope for him to understand the mechanics of the financial world at a young age.

Consistently proven to be right, Yuelin’s divergent thinking has made him conspicuous among his

father’s colleagues with memorable assertions such as “the decline of Chinese economy would lead to an

increase in alcohol consumptions” or “the impact of McDonald’s coming to China would boost

smartphone-buyers to compensate the longer duration spent outside their homes”. After completing his

first semester of third grade, Yuelin decided to continue his academics abroad in New Zealand, and he

pursued to construct a more diversified investment portfolio for his father’s hedge fund. Five years later,

Yuelin immigrated to New Zealand due to better taxation and traveling power for the future.

Fully immersed into a new environment, the importance of English proficiency became clear. On

the other hand, his competent quantitative-expertise from stringent courses and extra tutoring was quickly

recognized by his counselors, who approved his petition that grants him advanced quantitative-education

that is two years ahead of his current grade. When Yuelin is not studying mathematics, he was reading

and writing English so that one day he could read financial statements in both languages.

After being accepted into the reputable Whitman School of Management, he helped with

translating Chinese financial reports and news for the Orange Value Fund. The Director of which later

invited him to be a senior analyst for the fund due to Yuelin’s excellent academic performances in

fiannce. In his spare time, Yuelin likes to be on the Bloomberg Terminals preparing himself to use it daily

in the future.

Over the summer of 2017, Yuelin has an internship opportunity at EJF Capital LLC, which is a

well-known hedge fund in the banking industry. He hopes to use what he will learn through this

internship into helping the OVF when school starts. Upon graduation, Yuelin wishes to work in the

financial industry and tests his rich financial knowledge.
