Summary
Being a first-generation college student has been a great opportunity for which I am thankful for. As a current Marketing Major at Clemson University, I am eager to enhance my professional skills and expand my overall knowledge in my future career. From becoming a meat cutter at the age of 19 to being able to Intern at one of the world's most prestigious hotel companies at their Sales Galley in Hilton Head Island, I have improved and gained new skills along the way. I enjoy working with others and learning from those around me as much as possible.
