Although my least favorite thing to do is to talk about myself, here we go. My name is Robert Hort and I grew up right here in State College, PA. I enjoyed playing football and lacrosse at State College High where I graduated from in 2017. I participated in clubs such as DECA and a student run hedge fund that is very similar to the Nittany Lion Fund here on campus (ironically called the Little Lion Fund). This year we were able to outperform 96% of funds with real investor money. Currently I am attending Penn State where I will peruse a degree in finance.

In my free time I enjoy building things, going on adventures, and hanging out with the boys. I am a huge motor-head and whenever I get the chance to, I am usually working on one of my too many cars that never seem to work right/never are quite fast enough. I consider myself a certified professional amateur. Some of my ridiculous adventures including riding a tandem bike across the state of New Jersey and some questionable experiences with fireworks that I am unable to share on the internet.

My words of advice to anyone who needs it is as follows: “Believe deep down in your heart that you’re destined to do great things.”
