I am a current senior at Penn State pursuing an integrated bachelor's and master's degree in Accounting. In December of 2023, I will graduate with both my bachelor's and master's degrees as well as the 150 credits required to become a CPA. I plan to become a licensed CPA in early 2024. I would like to begin my career in auditing and assurance services to build a foundational base in accounting and business. During the course of my college career, I have been able to develop hands-on finance knowledge by being selected to be a part of the Nittany Lion Fund, a student-run hedge fund made up exclusively of private investor capital. I have also had the opportunity to intern in sales and trading in both my sophomore and junior summers. I am heavily involved in Penn State THON, the world's largest student-run philanthropy benefitting the Four Diamonds Fund at Hershey Children's Hospital, which has helped develop my interpersonal skills, by serving as a Hospitality captain in my junior year and a Family Relations Captain my senior year.
