Completing an Internship (5 Points) — Parker Buchanan C/O ‘27

 During my internship with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management on the Business Transformation Services team, I learned how strategy, data, and innovation come together to make real change within a large organization. I saw firsthand how process improvements and technology can make day-to-day work more efficient for both advisors and clients. This experience pushed me to think deeper about how small adjustments can lead to big results, and it expanded the way I look at business and problem-solving. I also grew a lot personally,  I became more confident sharing my ideas, working in fast-paced environments, and communicating with executive leaders  across different teams. Most of all, I learned that I really enjoy seeing end to end processes come together and providing clients with optimal solutions Moving forward, I plan to use what I learned to approach challenges with creativity and collaboration, whether it’s in the classroom, my leadership roles on campus, or my future career in finance.  I’m proud to announce that I will be returning to the firm for the Summer 2026 as a summer analyst once more.
