I am a 21-year old student at the University of Oregon majoring in Accounting with a concentration in finance. I am also minoring in economics. I enjoy anything that allows me to get out in the outdoors and I especially love water sports (wakeboarding, surfing, etc.). Academically I enjoy both contructing and analyzing financial statements as well as studying valuation models used to price investment intruments. I will graduating in the spring of 2016 and what happens then I still very up in the air but that's the beauty of it! 

Hometown: Sherwood, Oregon

I grew up in Sherwood, Oregon which is a small town (population: 18,000) located about 15 miles south of Portland. I actually really enjoyed growing up there besides the sometimes annoying small-town atmoshere where everyone knows everyone else's business. But I think that's a product of most small towns. Sherwood is right on the edge of suburbia and rural Oregon countryside so it was nice to be able to get to Portland or the mall with 30 minutes. But it was also just as nice to be able to get to the midddle of nowhere in 15 minutes.
