Competencies

A quick look at my skills and accomplishments

Internships

Each internship has developed different skills in various areas, giving me a well-rounded understanding of business and technology. My first Internship was with Student Painters, which developed my inter-personal skills such as: sales, leadership, management, customer relationship management, and communication. My second internship and part-time job throughout college has been Applicaiton Manager for Midwest Utility Consultants. This has sharpened my technical skills in Java, VBA, Excel, and Telephony. My final internship with 5/3 Bank gave me exposure to a corporate IT setting and helped me understand how larger organizaions manage their many IT roles and responsibilities.

Technical Skills

Languages I have worked with include Java, VBA, SQL, COBOL, HTML/CSS/JavaScript, and Python. My experience with these languages has been professional, academic, and personal. One of my greatest strengths is the ability to familiarize myself with new tecnologies through self-study and application.
Example: Going into my first Java course, I spent a few hours watching videos on the subject to familiarize myself with the language. After eight to twelve hours of online learning, I had found that I had taught myself an entire semester's worth of knowledge in a few hours and was even able to complete the final project within the first week of class.

Awards

Certifications and accomplishments I have been awareded

Academic Program

I was accepted into The Fisher College of Business Dean's Leadership Accademy which is a 3 credit hour course with the goal of building up the next generation of business leaders. This was an opportunity for me to recieve leadership mentoring from industry experts Professor Tony Rucci, former Director of HR at Cardinal Health, and Professor Jeff Rodek, former CEO of Hyperion. Only the top 3% of students, ranked by GPA, are invited to apply. The top 40% of applicants, according to their leadership experience and potential, are accepted to participate in the program.

Certificate

I was awarded a FMC™ Level I Certification from Adventis. This required that I:

  • Build a three-statement, fully circular and properly formatted financial model from "scratch" in under 90 minutes.
  • Develop an understanding of key concepts in financial modeling, accouting, and corporate finance.

Recognition

I have been awared the honor of being named to the Dean's List four times as recognition for a semester GPA of 3.5 or greater. I am very proud of these accomplishments and while I do not believe that a GPA is the perfect indicator of success, I do believe that it speaks to my interest in the subject matter, my drive to achieve results, and is reflective of my general interest in learning. I am a life-long learner and I will continue to sharpen my skills throughout my career.
