I was part of the leadership team of a McCombs student organization called Target Your Future. As part of that organization, I had the opportunity to travel to Dallas and Houston and visit multiple Fortune 500 companies.

Aspirations:

My passions lie at the intersection of people and technology. I hope to join a risk consulting practice upon graduation from McCombs. I am excited about working with my peers, finding innovative solutions to complex problems, and leveraging the business skills I learn from my time in McCombs.

Whether it’s playing pick-up basketball in Gregory Gym, being on the exec board of my student organizations, or just hanging out at one of the student lounges, taking the time to soak in and maximize your college experience is essential. 

Cool things I’ve done during my time at UT:

One of the best parts about being at UT is the fact that you’re right in the middle of one of the liveliest cities in the nation. Attending concerts, volunteering in the community or trying out new foods has enhanced my UT experience. Plus, you never know which celebrity might decide to stop by campus! (Hint: Matthew McConaughey or Kevin Durant).

Aspirations:

After graduating from the McCombs School of Business, I hope to get a couple of years of work experience in an operations analyst role and then return to school to obtain a Master’s Degree. After my education is complete, I hope to work abroad for a while and focus on non-profit work involving education and diversity.

Their guidance has aided me in my success thus far, and I’m excited that I get to pay it forward now as an upperclassman.
