Hello, people of the world! My name is Nicolas O'Brien, and I am currently a Sophomore studying Finance and Supply Chain Management at the University of Houston. A brief timeline...2020: In my first year of college, while stuck in my room and locked out from the world due to the Covid-19 pandemic, I used my free time to start a 6-figure reselling operation. 2021: Being pent up in my room the past year, I had enough and desperately needed a social change and new challenges. In my second year of college, I joined the Asian Business Student Association (ABSA) and used this as a springboard for personal and professional development. 2022: After my first semester in ABSA, I applied, interviewed, and was chosen to join the Corporate Relations department. Following a successful semester as a Corporate Relations director, I ran and, by member vote, was elected to be the VP of Corporate Relations for the fall of 2022, where I will be leading a team of 3 to personally and professionally develop hundreds of ABSA members.I can't wait to see what's in store for this year!If you wish to read my timeline's not-so-brief summary, I encourage you to read my full bio below. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1huz2ouG0l76E2QN579En0TnDRLfoK_jR2LsVFkQus0s/edit?usp=sharing
