Currently, as a financial analyst, I support directors and executives with FP&amp;A activities through analysis of P&amp;Ls, budget variances, and hedging, providing ad-hoc reporting. In addition, I have returned to obtain my Master\u2019s in Business Administration. Having a broad liberal arts education helped me think critically and analytically, and while I am still early in my career I am excited to see where my two degrees take me. Outside of work and school, I enjoy exploring Chicago, travelling, and spending time with friends and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"264\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.valpo.edu\/college-of-arts-and-sciences\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/07\/Carlos-Cabaya-1-scaled-e1654189920898-264x300-1.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2339\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alumni Profiles Carlos Cabaya After graduating from Valpo, I leveraged my Political Science major to the corporate financial and accounting environment.
