  Edventure More - Camp Edmo and Camp EdTech

  Jun 2019 - Aug 2019

  Summer Camp Counselor

  I have always prioritized having diverse experiences, and this translates to my career as well. During my summer as a camp counselor, I learned a variety of transferrable skills. I was a liason and primary point of contact between parents and the organization. I learned many valuable customer service skills through these experiences. Working in a field of such high liability taught me to truly take charge in my role, and follow my instincts with every decision I made.

  Sagepointe Advisors LLC

  Jul 2020 - Aug 2020

  Summer Intern

  Sagepointe was the turning point in my academic career. I realized that my passions were in the area of Finance, rather than the broader applications of economics. I was able to apply my prior knowledge of Statistics, and new knowledge of portfolio metrics and benchmarks in a variety of ways. One of the most important projects I worked on was the analysis of my own portfolio in the lense of these metrics. I learned the technical knowledge of the formulas and calculations behind the programs used in the industry. Show less

  Fridays are For

  Oct 2020 - now

  Podcast Host

  This is a lifestyle podcast I created to increase financial and health literacy in teens and young adults. I manage the social media accounts and the episodes. In the process of beginning this new venture, I have learned a lot about marketing and management. I am actively trying to increase engagement with my content, and I spend time after each episode and post analyzing the data and feedback from the various platforms I work with. All of the content I create is original. I research, write, host, and edit each episode, and my sister creates all of the art found on our instagram, as well as the podcast's logo. Show less
