At The Ohio State University, I have been fortunate enough to gain many new experiences and participate in different kinds of activities. This year, I joined TEDxOhioStateUniversity and it has been amazing. Through this organization, I have been able to expand my financial experience. I am on the Development Committee and my main duties consist of organizing budgets and maintaining a primary account book. I also serve as an inter-committee liaison, which gives me a greater understanding of the organization. I hope to use this experience to grow upon as well as form connections with like-minded people. I believe that this opportunity connects well with academic enrichment because I am a finance major. I chose finance because I have a genuine interest in the financial markets and my aspiration is to pursue a career in corporate finance. Presently, I am also pre-med, and I believe the required classes I have taken so far have helped me develop as a student. They are difficult and demanding, however, they force you to adapt to each situation and focus on the present. Currently I am trying to make a final decision between finance and medicine, but as of now, I really enjoy the business curriculum. I was recently accepted into the Dean’s Leadership Academy, which I believe is a wonderful opportunity. The required classes for this certification will give me the tools necessary to be the best leader I can be. I am always looking for new ways to improve and grow and I’m very excited for this program. Due to the cutthroat environment of today’s World, I am always looking out for different ways to separate myself. The Mount Leadership Society Scholars Program has given me an extraordinary foundation to build upon and I am l eager to continue my advancement in leadership as well as learning.
