Anne Motley ’07- War Eagle! I am a proud third-generation Auburn graduate. I was raised in Vestavia Hills, Alabama. My grandfathers both graduated from Auburn, and they passed down a deep devotion to the university and its programs. My first memory of discovering my personal love for Auburn was during the 1989 Iron Bowl. I was 6 years old. I vividly recall watching “30-20” flash across the television screen as Pat Dye began to cry. While I had a limited understanding of that particular Iron Bowl’s significance at the time, I was joyfully crying right along with Coach Dye. That was my moment. After graduating in 2007 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication, I moved to Houston, Texas to work for Best Buddies International. We advocate for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. I am married to a Texas Tech-loving airline pilot and have an adorable Boston Terrier named MacLaine.

Hailing from the Philadelphia area, I wanted to go at least 1,000 miles away for college. 9/11 happened my senior year of high school, so I applied to Auburn knowing it had a NROTC Unit, was accepted, and said yes without ever setting foot on campus. Best decision of my life. I graduated in 2006 with a bachelor’s degree in Political Science and was commissioned into the United States Navy on the same day. I earned my master’s degree in Political Science from Villanova University in 2012. After three deployments on three different classes of ships, I decided to transition to the Navy Reserve in 2015 and pursue a career as a financial advisor. I currently run my own financial planning firm and serve as a Commander in the United States Navy Reserves. During a basketball game in 2003 I accidentally ripped the tail off Aubie. I think there must have been a photo taken of me because for four years, every Aubie stared me down when they were around me. I once ate 57 wings at Buffalo Connection’s AYCE night. My favorite Auburn memory is rushing the field after the 2017 Iron Bowl. When not cheering for Auburn, you can find me engaged in my second passion, which is cooking. I enjoy spending as much time with my family as possible and taking road trips. War Eagle!

My favorite Auburn memory comes in the form of the amazing people who impacted my time there and my life—friends, professors, mentors. Auburn people are the best! War Eagle!
