Andrew Gentilcore Email & Phone Number

I am a Junior in the Haslam College of Business at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, working toward a business degree in Business Analytics with a minor in Data Science and a concentration in Information Management. I love helping others with my problem-solving skills and reaching our goals with my leadership skills. In my previous position as a cashier at Lowes, being in the self-checkout section of the store gave me the opportunity to help veterans figure out how to get their military discount without future help from me. Another example of this is when an item that someone wants to purchase does not have a barcode, I must use my problem-solving skills to find the item in the catalog to make the transaction seem seamless rather than having to walk through the store to find the items barcode. Being the founder and president of an organization created and refined my leadership skills by creating advertisements, working with the students a part of the organization, and making sure I am listening to my officers' ideas to make their ideas feel heard and see if it could be used. Some of my business interests include figuring out market and economic trends, how inflation impacts the American population, and how taxes effect each purchase in the market. My experiences with problem solving, analytical thinking, and leadership have prepared me to pursue a career in Business Analytics. For example, being a part of my business fraternity’s audit committee and Investment team and analyzing the data on the excel sheets to make great financial decisions. Figuring out the budget for each semester takes a lot of teamwork and leadership to understand how much should be spent in each section of the organization and what needs to be sacrificed to keep it afloat. I also use my problem-solving skills to figure out new ways to increase capital for the organizations. I am currently seeking an internship for the summer of 2024.
