Quite simply, I am grateful to live such a fortunate life.
Each and every day there are more opportunities to learn and develop as a
person. This summer has been one of the best experiences of my life, with both
my internship at American Ratings Corporation and the School to Career
Partnership course. Though all the personality, passion, values, biology
quizzes gave me insight about who I am as a person, detailing our vision of the
future and analyzing it was far more imperative. I came to the realization that
the future is my motivation in all that I do. My dream to graduate from a
prestigious college and obtain the CFO position continually encourages me to go
the extra mile and chase success. Reflecting on what I learned in the discoveries
helped put what I know in my mind to words on paper. I am a highly motivated,
slightly overconfident, passionate and empathetic individual. I absolutely love
socializing and love to make new relationships. At my internship, I enhanced my
skills by refining professionalism, computer literacy, and basic communication.
I routinely dressed of the appropriate attire, came to work 15 minutes early,
worked endlessly with Excel and mastered tips and tricks associated with it. Just
observing the rest of the office from my cubical was imperative to better my
understanding on how a business runs effectively. Overall improving my computer
literacy and proficiency was the best takeaway from the summer, bar none. I
took countless spreadsheets of data, crunched it, gauged a formula to identify
the effectiveness based on distinct characteristics, and created a one-sheet
summary with graphs and easy-to-see data. This Facebook Analytics challenge
consumed most of my time, but it was certainly worthwhile. I am fortunate to
have had these opportunities and cannot wait to deploy what I have learned for
future success.
