At the age of 14, I just had sold my first pair of sneakers. Making hundreds of dollars off of this one pair than prompted me to continue selling different shoes and turn that into a business. From than on, I had been buying and selling shoes and other items to make money. These money making techniques have landed me where I am today, majoring in finance at the Kelley School of Business. As a finance major at Indiana and the co-founder of the Lesters Sr. Living Trivia program, I have been working on learning different aspects of finance, while still interacting with people and working on my people skills. I have learned about different computing skills such as Excel and Access and even about the different basic finance terms like Net and Gross Income. While doing all of this, working on interacting and helping people has also been great to keep up with. When I am not studying finance or helping out at the living home, I am coaching, playing or watching sports. Whether its leading a high school baseball team, coaching a youth team to the finals of a tournament or watching the yankees in the playoffs, I love to involve myself with baseball because of the mental toughness that is necessary to play the game. The resilience one must have to fail 7/10 times and still be in the hall of fame is fascinating to me and that is what draws me into the sport. This also connects to the business world. Not everything I do is going to be perfect and I know that I must have resilience in order to succeed in business in the future. Here’s a revised version:I’m always open to connecting with finance professionals and exploring opportunities for growth and learning.
