I am an academically minded student focused on gaining increased exposure into the industry of finance. I have developed several useful skills such as leadership and communication thanks to my participation as Captain of the Speech team for my Speech and Debate club in high school and as a member of the Watchung Hills NHS executive board. Currently, I have continued to maintain a focus on my academics maintaining a high GPA during my first semester. I have also begun to explore my areas of interest in finance through joining the Restructuring and Distressed Investing Club as well as being an active member of the Financial Services Club. In the future, I hope to gain experience through an internship and learn more about the general finance industry, but specifically in the investment banking services industry, in order to prepare me for a job out of my undergraduate education.
