My name is Austin Crenshaw. I am a sophomore at the University of Tennessee Knoxville in the Haslam College of Business. I am studying Business Management with a focus in Supply Chain. I initially went into business with not much thought; it was a good degree from a good school and provides well out of college. However, I have gotten a lot out of business as a major, as well as the business world outside of schooling. I work a retail job and have learned how to interact with customers well, provide customer satisfaction, and work hard to get tasks done. Business has been a great opportunity for me to keep improving my skills of communication, determination, work ethic, and relatability to others. For example, I work with customers both in store and on the phone every day, and provide lasting relationships to the store I work at, as well as try and form a personal relationship with the customer and keep track of their individual stories. I am very people-friendly, and love anything to do with sharing my thoughts and helping others solve problems.My main goal for the near future is to find a job that allows me to help people solve problems, communicate well with my employees and boss, impact the company on a personal level, and give my all to a job to make the company the best it can be. Sacrificing myself and my needs for the good of others is something I have always kept a priority, and I want to be able to shift that into a job in the future. I am set on graduating in the Spring of 2026 and pursuing business after graduation.
