Chase Pinkernell

Incoming 2027 Investment Banking Summer Analyst @ Citi

About

Sophomore at Colgate University studying Mathematical Economics with a minor in Psychology. Driven by a genuine passion for finance and a track record of turning ideas into results.I cofounded and scaled a golf accessory resale business to over $50,000 in profit by spotting opportunities others missed and moving fast. That same mindset carries into everything I do, from conducting investment research and making capital allocation decisions at Maroon Holdings to managing budgets and leading teams as Social Chair of Theta Chi.I am someone who refuses to give up, cares deeply about the details, and builds relationships that actually mean something. I show up the same way every time whether I am working with a client, digging into the numbers, or taking on something I have never done before.Outside of work I am always on the move, fishing, golfing, skiing, DJing, and looking for the next challenge.Always looking to connect with driven professionals across financial services.
