The senior finance lecturer and two-time UCF graduate could often be seen on campus \u2014 like many of his students \u2014 skateboarding to class in a T-shirt and jeans.<\/p>\n<p>Sturm, who died Nov. 12 at age 58, taught both finance and accounting since returning to his alma mater in 2000 as an adjunct instructor. He was an avid musician and had recently started a band called Ray and The Storm Surge.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRay was such a talented person, so full of life. An academic \u2018switch hitter\u2019 who was as much at home with accountancy as with finance and was hugely popular with his students,\u201d says Ajai Singh, chair of the Department of Finance and Director of the Dr. P. Phillips School of Real Estate at UCF. \u201cIt is so difficult to believe that Ray is not with us any longer. He will be sorely missed by all his colleagues and students.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A Central Florida native, Sturm grew up in Winter Park and graduated from Winter Park High School in 1981 before enlisting in the United States Army. After serving in the Army, he earned his bachelor\u2019s degree in accounting and master\u2019s in taxation at UCF before completing his Ph.D. at Florida Atlantic University. He started out teaching on UCF\u2019s regional campuses and spent the latter part of his career on main campus. Prior to his teaching career, Ray was a partner of Sturm and Sturm CPA in Winter Park with his father and owned Ten Talents Assets Management, Inc.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_124476\" style=\"max-width: 300px;\" class=\"figure float-left\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid w-100 wp-image-124476 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-300x200.jpg\" alt srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"figure-img img-fluid w-100 wp-image-124476 size-medium lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20300%20200%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20300%20200%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2.jpg 1200w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/20\/files\/2021\/11\/Ray-Sturm-2-300x200.jpg\"><figcaption class=\"figure-caption\">The late senior lecturer of finance Ray Sturm \u201989 \u201998MS (left) with College of Business Dean Paul Jarley.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cRay was a teacher at heart, intellectually curious, and like all passionate people, hardheaded at times,\u201d says Paul Jarley, dean of the College of Business. \u201cLike a lot of us, he was a down-to-Earth professor who believed in higher education\u2019s promise of upward social mobility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sturm was a Certified Public Accountant and member of the AICPA.
