Profile

After completing my bachelor’s degree in Sports Studies, with a minor focus in Business Administration, I have spent the last 2 years using my skills to do what I love; coaching competitive soccer. In this time, I have fine-tuned certain skills such as group/team management, communication, and problem solving. I have also developed a new set of skills as well as a base understanding of the sports business industry. While I love what I do, it is time to move on and get started on my long-term career goals. I am now looking for positions in business, finance, and accounting that will allow me to utilize the wide variety of skills to succeed, while also learning and perfecting new skills to help me grow and transfigure myself into the outstanding business professional I wish to become. I am a self-motivated, detail-oriented, and goal driven individual and I believe I would be a great fit for this position given the chance!
