About

I am a very driven individual who is seeking success on the path to my future career. My ultimate goal is to work in commercial banking, but I'm starting out with an associate's degree in business administration in hopes to land a job working one the front lines of a bank where I'll be able to work my way up as I gain a higher education level. I married my best friend in April 2016 and we are expecting our first child (a girl) in February 2017. I know that I have a bright future ahead of me and I am looking forward to achieving my goals.

Goals and interests

Career goal

Ultimately, the goal is to work in commercial banking, but I'm hoping with this associate's degree in business administration, I can get my foot in the door doing something on the frontlines of a bank where I can eventually work my way up as my education level increases.

Graduate school interests

I have not yet decided if grad school is something that I would be interested in, but if I choose to pursue my education that far, I would like to either stay at University of North Georgia or transfer to University of Georgia to do so.

Outside the classroom

I enjoy walking/jogging, playing volleyball, hiking, traveling, and cooking/baking.
