AWARDS & RECOGNITION
FIRST PLACE AT JP MORGAN CHASE & CO. CASE COMPETITION 2024
The Pi Sigma Epsilon team is so honored to take home first place for the JP Morgan Chase & Co. International Innovate for Impact Case Study Competition hosted in Plano, Texas!
Special thanks to Drake Dais, SHRM-CP for setting up the event and allowing us to compete. Our team was able to greatly develop their quick thinking and consulting skills and form lasting bonds with students from schools across the country. We were grateful for the opportunity and learned so much from this experience.
We are so proud of our members Gina Travaglianti, Andrew Hammond, Christopher Vonnahme, and Katherine Malynn!
FOUR 2024 FISHER PACESETTERS
In March, four of our members were awarded The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business Pace Setters Award. The Pace Setter Award is given to less than 2% of Fisher Students every year, recognizing a select group of students who demonstrate outstanding achievement in academics and impactful leadership experiences.
Congratulations to Sam Willkomm, Yash Desai, Joseph Caligiuri, and Nate Sprecher, we are so proud of you!
PSE X EXPRESS MARKETING CASE COMPETITION 2023
A couple weeks ago, we hosted our first ever PSE x EXPRESS Marketing Case Competition at the Express Headquarters in Columbus! We had the privilege of working alongside Jessica Thies since August to put this event on.
28 of our members got the chance to expand on their skillset through creating marketing presentations and pitching to members of Express's marketing department. Not only that, but they also got a tour of the impressive HQ and a networking session with members of the Executive and HR teams.
Thank you Jessica Thies and the EXPRESS team for all of the support and help to make this event possible!

Congratulations to Hanna More, Angela Min, Joel Tobler, Kendell Faircloth, and Ariana Fluker for winning First Place!

This past week, a couple of our members competed in the 4th annual Procter & Gamble Business Development Case Competition here at Ohio State! They were tasked with pitching an up-and-coming P&G product to a retailer, creating presentations, and were judged by a panel of the P&G team along with two faculty members from the Marketing and Logistics department (including our very own PSE faculty advisor!).
We are so proud of everyone who participated! We wanted to say congratulations to Ryan Schaffer and Sema Altawam's team for winning the competition and to Illya Yefymenko and Kristen Boral's team for placing second!
This past Friday, 9 of our members participated in the McKinsey & Company Case Competition, which was put through a collaboration of a handful of OSU business organizations. It was the first case competition McKinsey hosted in the United States, so our PSE Gamma Nu chapter was very fortunate and honored to be involved in such an incredible professional opportunity.
Our members were on 3 different teams out of the 10 that were selected by McKinsey, and were able to get first-hand consulting experience in working with this case to come up with solutions to improve Ohio's economy and infrastructure.
Thank you McKinsey & Company for this experience, we look forward to continuing to get involved in professional development opportunities like this!
