Elton Oliveira’s Post

Officially graduated from The University of Texas at Austin! These past two years, earning my MBA from the Texas McCombs School of Business, have been an exciting journey of trials and tribulations. I’m grateful for all the relationships I’ve been able to cultivate during my time here. I’d like to thank everyone who gave me their time, mentorship, and support. I’m happy to announce that I’ll be starting my post-MBA journey in corporate finance at AT&T's headquarters in Dallas, Texas. I’m excited for the future ahead. #McCombs2024 #WhatStartsHereChangestheWorld

Last week marked the conclusion of our 3-month study abroad experience at the University of St.Gallen, one of Europe’s premier business schools. A journey I had the pleasure of sharing with fellow Longhorns and students from around the world. A big thank you to Debbie Carney and Christian Muntwiler, alongside all the amazing professors, especially Martin J. Eppler and Stefan Morkoetter, who made this experience of learning European finance, management, and communication strategies an enriching experience. #HSG #Frominsightstoimpact

I am both humbled and thrilled to share a significant step in my educational journey. I have been given the incredible opportunity this semester to join the International Study Program (ISP) at the University of St.Gallen in Switzerland, a renowned hub for finance and management education. Representing The Texas McCombs School of Business in this new venture, I look forward to embracing the historical financial landscape of Switzerland. Heading to St. Gallen, this isn't just a change of scenery, but a leap into a world brimming with revolutionary financial ideas. Here, I'll be at the crossroads of traditional Swiss banking heritage and modern European corporate strategies. Driven by my passion for finance, I am eager to bring back valuable insights to the McCombs community.

As the Free Speech Forum commences this week, the McCombs School of Business was honored to host presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. It was enlightening to understand his perspectives as he thoughtfully addressed live Q&A sessions with The University of Texas at Austin students this evening.

Excited to be part of the inaugural Mergermarket Private Equity Forum! At this cornerstone event for private equity, institutional investing, and M&A, I'm gaining valuable insights on capital allocation strategies, sector trends, and macroeconomic factors. Networking with top professionals in the field has been a fantastic opportunity to expand my knowledge and connections. #PrivateEquity #InvestmentInsights #MergermarketPEFAustin

"Everyone has a plan till they get punched in the mouth"- Mike Tyson I recently heard this quote and it's is a brilliant reflection on the unpredictability of life and the true test of resilience. It suggests that no matter how much we prepare or strategize, unforeseen challenges will arise, and it's our ability to adapt and persevere that truly defines us.

Truly inspired by Naval Ravikant's wisdom
