What two or three accomplishments have given you the most satisfaction? Why?
Studying abroad in the Vienna Summer Program. I was nervous and didn’t think I’d want to be away from home in a foreign country, but it was an amazing experience. I met so many great people and made memories I will treasure forever.
My two internships at State Street Global Advisors. It was great to feel like I was contributing to the departments I was in. The industry and work experience I received will be very beneficial in choosing a career.
Describe your most rewarding college experience.
Studying abroad. I was put in an unfamiliar, challenging environment, met people from all over the world and made lifelong friends. It made me aware of how big the world is and how much there is to see and learn about different places and cultures.
What have you learned from participation in extracurricular activities?
They are a great way to meet people whom you might not normally become friends with and get involved on campus.
I am a Peer Adviser for the Vienna Program and it gives me an opportunity to talk to people about my experience and something I am passionate about.
What have you learned from your mistakes while in college?
Nothing is ever too big to fix. Sometimes, at this age, things seem like they’re the end of the world when they really aren’t! Even when things seem bad, there will always be a way to get through it.
It is important to have loyal friends and family who love and support you to help you get through hard times.
What do you see yourself doing five years from now?
I want be living in Boston. I am looking for a career in finance, either in financial services or in the finance department of a non-financial services company. I love fashion and retail, so maybe down the road I will explore a career in that industry.
How do you plan to stay involved at Bentley?
I would love to be involved in alumni organizations. My parents are alumni and they are both very involved. I’m sure there will be opportunities for me to find a place that I can donate my time to.
What are you looking forward to this last semester?
Spending time with friends, creating memories and enjoying the last few months of freedom before real life begins!
