Summary
I am from Long Island, NY and i am currently in my Senior year at Hartwick College, where i have gained a strong interest in Economics through my studies. I am an Economics and Business Administration double major, and currently on the football team here at Hartwick. I am also a member of Alpha Sigma Phi, which allows me to network really well with alumni. My previous work experience includes being an event manager for Ace and Jack Casino Company, as well as catering for the Plattdeutsch Restaurant. One of my favorite courses I have taken here at Hartwick include econometrics, and some of my basic skills include critical thinking, research analysis, and I am very hard working and driven. I am currently looking for a job opportunity to further my career in Business and Economics, and to prove to an employer that I am capable of completing the tasks asked of me.
