About Me

IMG_0153

 

My name is Matthew McKelvey and I am a first year student from Saint Xavier High School in Cincinnati, Ohio. I am the middle child in my family surrounded my an older and a younger sister. I have gone to private schools all my life, including an all boys high school. Going to a large state school is definitely a change of pace for me. I am planning on double majoring in Finance and Mandarin Chinese. I have already taken four years of Chinese in high school and one of my main academic goals at OSU is to become fluent in the language. Chinese has become one of my academic passions because I think it is fascinating and I hope it opens up many doors for me in the business world. I plan to study abroad to China during the summers going into junior and senior year. I also enjoy playing sports, primarily basketball. I have played soccer and basketball for a very long time, competitively and recreationally. I have been a fan of Ohio State athletics ever since I can remember so turning down the acceptance letter would have been very difficult and I cannot wait to start my time in Columbus.
