Why did you join Honors in Business Association?
I joined HiBA because I wanted to meet more students in the School of Business. After attending a few meetings, I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the various speakers that came in to present. I held the position of an Event Coordinator in Spring of 2015. This semester I hold the position as Chief Administrative Officer! I am really enjoying getting to know all of the members, as well as the professionals that come in and speak to us.
What else are you involved in on campus besides HiBA?
I am a member of the sorority Gamma Phi Beta, a member of the Information Management Association (IMA) as well as the Undergraduate Business Association (UBA.) I just received a job as a Student Athlete Tutor!
What do you enjoy most about UConn?
The best thing about UConn, in my opinion, is definitely the amazing opportunities that this campus provides. Besides meeting some of my best friends, I have been able to make friends and join clubs that I have never even thought about before! The School of Business provides you with so many opportunities for internships and future job placement! It is the best school ever!
What are your career aspirations?
In the future I would love to do something along the lines of Technology Sales. I am very passionate about people, traveling and technology and the combination of all three is amazing. I am a very social person, so going in to different companies and selling them software sounds like a great job to me!
Previous internships
The summer that I graduated high school, I started working at Peoples United Bank Headquarters as a Quality Assurance Intern. I’ve worked there for the past three years (on Winter/Summer/Spring Break) and it has been an amazing opportunity! Recently, I was offered a position at Travelers Insurance Company in Hartford, CT for next summer in their Operations department!
