Summary
Have been involved with sports since a very young age. I am the first generation to graduate college in my family. Very hungry to get in the workforce and make a direct impact very quickly. Haven't been able to maintain a job throughout college due to time dedicated to academics and athletics. I am very dependable with a strong work ethic and carry a sense of competitiveness. I am very compatible and communicate well with others. I have always maintained a minimum of 3.2 GPA and have received many awards on and off the court. I am a member of the Montgomery county college promise program with a mentor who works at the connor group with a business management degree from Miami, Oxford university. I will be graduating in May with a business management BBA.
