Throughout my high school career, I worked to develop my interests and find what I am truly passionate about. In doing so, I discovered a passion for business, social justice, sustainability, and understanding how these ideas can be brought together to bring about real change. As I begin my college journey, I am working to develop my skills to ensure I will be a valuable addition to future employers and effectively bring change to the world. Through my Economic Consulting Major in the Kelley School of Business, I will strengthen my analytical skills to ensure I am capable for future employment. In addition, my Philosophy, Political Science, and Economics minor will allow me a deeper understanding of the ways in which these disciplines are interconnected. This provides me with a more nuanced view, allowing me to bring valuable insight to all teams I find myself apart of. Furthermore, my involvement in Net Impact, a club focused around making business sustainable, allows me to actively engage with other students and develop adequate solutions for problems in business sustainability.Working part time in multiple organizations has given me a firsthand look into how the dynamics of a company directly determine efficiency and the impact the company as a whole can have on the wider world. I find myself to be someone who cares deeply about people and wants to change the way individuals are viewed in the working world. I find it disheartening to see people diminished to just numbers when everyone has something unique to offer that may not be evident through metrics. I wholeheartedly believe there are companies and individuals who share these values whom I am excited to work with.Feel free to reach out to me at erendell@iu.edu
