Christian Brooks

As an upcoming graduate, academics have shaped me into the person I am today. Through hard work and dedication, I’ve developed a strong foundation in business finance, while actively engaging in academic projects and university initiatives. These experiences have not only enhanced my problem-solving, teamwork, and time management skills but have also taught me the importance of continuous growth and progress. I am proud of how far I’ve come and excited to apply these lessons as I embark on the next chapter of my career.
