Welcome to Rowan! Could you share with us one thing you are looking forward in college?

I am looking very forward to studying Entrepreneurship and being exposed to young, aspiring business figures much like myself.

What is one hobby, activity, sport or club you were a part of in high school that you’d like to continue in college?

I was a part of Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) during high school. I would like to carry on the tradition in college, if possible.

Is there anything you’re hoping to discover about yourself in college? Grow a new skill? Try a new interest? Starting a new activity, sport or club?

I’m hoping to see how flexible and how good of a multi-tasker I am in college. I plan on starting and building up my career as a real estate agent while in college.

What majors are you considering and why?

Entrepreneurship and Political Science are two topics that are very special to me. I have always had a legitimate interest in both business and American politics. I would like to establish myself as a prominent businessman and possibly run for local office one day.

What is one thing about Rowan itself that you liked?

I just like the area Rowan is located. I am very familiar with the Glassboro area and like the suburban/rural scenery.

Like what you see?
