Biography:

I am currently working on my business administration degree,  now working towards a concentration in International Business. I have aspirations to enter the real estate market, with future plans of opening up my own firm.  Before I start my career-path, I would like to travel for a few years, now looking at teaching opportunities overseas. What I like about Brock is the Professors appreciation for their students. You are not just a number, but a highly respected individual whose ideas are considered inside the class room. Getting involved in different intramerals and other extra corricular activities has helped me find a balance between work and play.  Finding that perfect balance will probably be my biggest challenge in the future ahead

The smaller class sizes allow you to interact and get to know your professors which, is very helpful when it comes to asking questions about assignments and reviewing for exams.
