About

I attended the Lovett School in Atlanta, Georgia. I am currently a student at the University of Georgia with an intended double major in Accounting and Mathematics, all while trying to earn an Actuarial Sciences Certificate. I was a year round swimmer in high school and attended the State Championships 4 years in a row, and I continue to swim during my free time at UGA. I am a member of UGA Miracle and participate in the Underclassmen Fundraising committee.

Goals and interests

Career goal

I intend to have my CPA and FSA within 5 years at the University of Georgia, and I then intend to take that double major to the corporate world on Wall Street or go to Graduate School to continue the path of a powerful business woman.

Graduate school interests

I intend to go to Graduate School to earn my MBA in either Risk Management or, if I haven't already gotten either my CPA or FSA, to finalize earning my FSA and CPA. I want to be more than proficient in the language of the business world, therefore, I believe I must continue my studies so I can have a positive impact on the corporate world.

Outside the classroom

I enjoy spending my time swimming or hiking around campus. These two activities place me in a mental state of complete calm, which is why I try to go for a swim before large tests and exams.
