Goals and interests

Career goal

I am looking for a career after school that will lead me around the world, interact with various cultures, and help people along the way. I am very skilled in communicating and writing so I want to utilize them to the best of my abilities. I am passionate about travel so any job that requires flying elsewhere would be ideal.

Graduate school interests

I am interested in going back to receive my MBA after I gain some experience in the work force. Ideally, I would love for my job to pay for my schooling.

Outside the classroom

I am a musician who can play Guitar, Bass Guitar, and Piano. I enjoy writing my own music and playing in a band that I can produce music with. I play soccer and have played since I was four years old. Traveling is another hobby of mine that I enjoy. I have been to Mexico, Europe twice, Hawaii, and many state across the US. During the summer I like to go hike and climb 14ers and during the winter I enjoy the occasional ski trip up to the high country. Spending as much time with my family and friends is important to me as I value their presence with me and have it help guide me to my own personal success and well-being.
