What I like most about being a part of the Eller undergraduate community is...

My favorite aspect of being a part of the Eller community is just that — being a part of a community. The University of Arizona has such a large student body that it is easy to get lost in the crowd. I am thankful that Eller curriculum places an emphasis on the connections and relationships that students make with one another through pre-business and professional standing.

By the time a student is placed into the upper division cohort, the faces of classmates have become familiar and the professors have as well. Also, Eller offers 30 student organizations that serve a variety of interests within the business sector; there are plenty of opportunities to get involved and meet others who share specific passions within business.

Career Plans

I have always enjoyed the creative aspect of business, which is why I chose to study marketing. There are several avenues I have had the option to explore and I am still deciding which aspect of marketing is most appealing to me. I enjoy interacting with people and have always had a passion for getting involved and taking leadership roles. My main focus is to find a career that makes me happy and inspires me on a daily basis.
