I am a rising senior at Penn State University, majoring in Management in the Smeal College of Business. I have always been interested in marketing, and I have gained valuable experience in this field through my coursework and my work experience. In my marketing classes, I have learned about the different aspects of marketing, including market research, consumer behavior, and advertising. I have also had the opportunity to apply this knowledge to my work as a bartender and a lifeguard. As a bartender, I gained experience in managing inventory, setting prices, and executing on brand marketing programs from our vendors. I also learned how tointeract with customers and build relationships with them. In my role as a lifeguard, I developed strong leadership and problem-solving skills. I also learned how to work effectively as part of a team.I am a hard worker, with a growth mindset. I’m always looking to challenge myself to learn new things, so I can broaden my understanding of how people, markets, and the world works.
