Summary

I'm pursuing dual Bachelor's degrees in Accounting, and Banking & Finance at Ole Miss. As an Eagle Scout from Jackson, MS, my dedication and effort have consistently driven me to achieve my goals. This commitment was evident through my recent summer internship in Manhattan as an Assurance Intern, which intensified my eagerness to gain further experience. Post-college, I intend to pursue the CPA exam.
