Scott Skowronski Email and Phone Number

My parents told me that hard work paid off. Stereotypically, children don't listen to their parents. I guess I was the exception to the rule, as I, begrudgingly, listened. In my internship at CFNA, I became a SAS certified base programmer and performed a fraud analysis of credit cardholders. I presented the results to management and showed that fraud was not an issue and not worth the cost to attempt to decrease.At HPU, I graduated with a 3.8 GPA and a B.S. in Actuarial Science, and minors in Finance and Economics. Outside the classroom, I was president of the volunteer group, Civitan Club. I organized several recurring activities, as well as Stop Hunger Now and a Homelessness Awareness Campout. For Stop Hunger Now, I fundraised $2500 which allowed the club to package 10,000 meals for starving children. The Campout raised $3,300 in cash and in-kind donations that were given to Guilford County soup kitchens. My efforts were rewarded with the Campus Club of the Year award from HPU, and Service Project of the Year and Campus Club of the Year Awards from Civitan International for both years of my presidency. After graduation, I worked at the Vanguard Group where I passed the Series 7 and Series 63 exams. I excelled at my position as a Client Relationship Associate and was promoted to coaching newly hired individuals on systems and expectations. I was immersed in the financial markets, and aspired to learn more about the subject, so I began studying for the CFA Level 1 exam. Long hours of study paid off in June of 2015, as I passed the level 1 exam.My eagerness to further my education about business and the markets led me to my current position as a Business Analyst at Bank of America. I am continuing to study for the CFA Institute's exams, as I am now a level 2 candidate.I'm not sure yet where my career path will take me, but one thing is certain. Whatever endeavors I pursue, I will pursue them with hard work and an aspiration to achieve the desired results.
