Mathematical Economics Major Jobs and Graduate School Acceptances

Abby Zucatti

Abby Zucatti '24
Fixed Income Analyst, Stifel

As a mathematical economics major and business minor, Zucatti flourished in the Economics Department under the mentorship of Prof. Drew Murphy and Prof. Jamie O’Brien, learning important academic principles and valuable life skills. She expanded her horizons by serving as the senior intern in the Admissions Office, interviewing prospective students from all over the world, and enjoyed her own opportunity to expand her intercultural fluency, visiting a total of 12 countries while studying in Seville, Spain. “I chose to attend Gettysburg because I wanted to belong to a community where I could make a lasting impact,” said Zucatti. “I wanted a place where my professors would know my name, and I would have many opportunities both inside and outside of the classroom to excel and try new things. Gettysburg has exceeded this expectation.” After spending two summers as an intern at the investment bank Stifel, Zucatti will return to the New York City office for a full-time position as a fixed income analyst this summer.

Toothman was looking for a place where he could combine his love for baseball with rigorous academic learning and he found that at Gettysburg. A member of the baseball team and Alpha Tau Omega, Toothman is a mathematical economics major and a business minor. His favorite memories include going to Florida with the baseball team, competing in intramural flag football, and working in athletic communications, where he was able to serve as a commentator for basketball games. After graduation, Toothman plans on working for a sports equipment company and keep his sights set on an administrative career in baseball. “Being a Gettysburgian means being a part of a community of people that know each other and care for each other.”

Master's in Business Analtyics, Georgetown University

 “One skill that I think will help me greatly in the future is my ability to think critically,” said Fullowan. “My professors and coaches have always fostered an environment where I feel comfortable asking questions. I've learned the importance of constant learning and curiosity for what I have yet to learn.” An All-American attacker on the women's lacrosse team, Fullowan worked as a Peer Learning Associate for Intermediate Microeconomics and was a member of Delta Gamma, Student-Athlete Impact Leaders (SAIL), and Community GIGs. “Gettysburgian to me means that you are a part of a community that is bigger than yourself. You look out for one another and do your best to support them however you can.” After graduation, the mathematical economics major will work as a risk analyst at BNP Paribas in New York.
