I am a student at Carthage College in Kenosha, WI. I am an intended finance major and a double minor of economics and Spanish. I attended the University of Wisconsin - Whitewater with the intended major of international business, with a minor in economics and Spanish. At Whitewater, I was the stringer for the men's and women's teams. I also attended Carthage College my freshmen year of college where I was part of the Men's tennis team, e-board for the Model United Nations club, and joined the Tau Sigma Chi fraternity as the pledge class president. In my almost 3 years of college I have learned much about what it takes to succeed in the real world and how to be a leader through it all. I have been around business my whole life, starting from a very young age. Both of my parents owned their own businesses and were very successful. When my family moved up from Florida to where we are now in Wisconsin, my father became the national sales manager for Drag Specialties, a company out of LeMans corporation. I also have held several jobs, some for large companies, some for small businesses, so I have been able to see both ends of the spectrum. With this background in the business world, I knew from a very young age I wanted to do something in it. As I grew older, I found that my personality really gave me good qualities to have in business, qualities like communication, leadership, determination, and personability. I am looking to expand my business knowledge with internships and opportunities inside a company to really see first hand how I will fit in business.
