Summary
Finance and Business Administration double-majoring student at Aurora University, I am planning to pursue a master's in Finance to become an actuary. I've balanced schoolwork with part-time jobs in customer service and logistics. From restaurant work and social media advertising to coordinating truck logistics across multiple Amazon warehouses, to teaching kids how to swim and acquiring an Ellis lifeguard certification, these roles have built strong communication skills and a good work ethic, and I am now applying these skills and studies to a future career.
