I like to keep track of tasks with to-do lists and sticky notes, and am always making sure everything I can control is tidy and organized. I work well in a team and am passionate about success as I&#8217;m a fierce competitor, but I also love to read, write, and continue learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What do I value?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Happiness and spreading joy make me happy. While overstated, I truly do want to make the world a better place and contribute to the success of others. I value family and doing the right thing, travelling and appreciation for other cultures, and accepting life not as it is, but how it should be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How did I get here?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Oregon State wasn&#8217;t my first choice, I got here because it made sense. It was closer to home and less expensive, as well as it came with friends and people I knew already. Being in the College of Business was not my original intention; I started undeclared, not knowing what I wanted to do. I ended up with Management because I made friends in classes, watched the Office, and started to see how I could one day change the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Where am I going?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve made some pretty safe choices and been mostly boring along this path. I have an internship at a corporate office that starts in a few weeks and I could see myself interviewing for a position for after graduation. This is great in the sense that it&#8217;s secure and a seemingly normal way to go, with a house and one day hopefully a family to go along with that white picket fence. I&#8217;m not sure I&#8217;m happy with that though, as I want to travel a lot more and feel young for a lot longer too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What am I good at?
