My journey with FMA began in the Fall of 2022, driven by a desire for academic, professional, and personal growth. I recognized FMA as the platform that would enable me to connect with like-minded peers, expand my professional network through interactions with recruiters, and integrate the realm of finance into my college experience. Joining the Marketing Committee a year ago solidified my belief that this organization would play a pivotal role in my campus involvement. Beyond the academic sphere, I fill my free time with hikes alongside my two canine companions and immersing myself in books. Exploring new boba or food spots with friends, creating social media content, and traveling are also among my passions. I'm thrilled to connect with new faces and embark on a vibrant semester ahead.
