Introduction

Hello there everybody! I'm coming writing to you from Gainesville, Florida on this cold January day. I'm originally from Orlando, Florida which is about two hours of south of here and likely five degrees warmer. I lived there for 18 years in the same house with my brother, sister, and parents. My parents both still live in the same house while my brother just bought a condo in St.Augustine and my sister lives with her husband and son in Panama City. We're a very closely knit family that enjoys watching Seinfeld, walking around the neighborhood, and listening to classic rock. Starting off as a freshman at UF, I will be majoring in finance and hopefully minoring in entrepreneurship and real estate. I hope to get involved with FLA, Cicerones, SFG, and hopefully more groups. I'm particularly excited to study abroad this summer in the lovely city of Dublin. I've been to many states in the U.S. and a few countries like Spain and Canada but I really would like to explore more of Western Europe. I don't really have much of an idea of my dream job yet but I could see myself working in commercial real estate or as a financial advisor. I could also work for my father who has his own advising business. I'm a very outgoing person and I love meeting new people and speaking in public. Some of my favorite things in the world are Boston sports, classic rock, ultimate frisbee, playing the piano and relaxing in my hammock. Thanks for reading and I hope to get to know all of you soon!
