Background

About Beau Kelley

I’m a Finance and Business Analytics student at Ohio University with a strong interest in investment banking, leveraged finance, and credit-focused roles. My background centers on analytical problem‑solving, financial modeling, and understanding how capital structure decisions shape business outcomes. As Head Investment Analyst for the Ohio Fixed Income Management Group, I help manage a $3.5M investment‑grade portfolio, conducting credit analysis, evaluating spread and duration positioning, and forming macro‑driven investment theses. This experience has strengthened my ability to interpret market signals, assess risk, and communicate recommendations clearly, skills directly relevant to deal execution and capital markets work. I’ve complemented this with hands‑on banking experience through my internship at Poca Valley Bank, where I supported daily financial operations, assisted clients, and gained exposure to lending, compliance, and relationship management. I will continue building on this foundation as an incoming Wealth Management Summer Analyst at Poca Valley Financial. Outside of technical work, I serve as a Resident Advisor and an Outreach Academy Leader with Cru, roles that have sharpened my leadership, communication, and ability to work effectively under pressure. I’m actively exploring opportunities in investment banking, structured products, corporate banking, leveraged finance, and debt capital markets. I’m driven, detail‑oriented, and committed to developing the skills needed to contribute meaningfully on day one. Always open to connecting with professionals in the industry.
