Ruben Velasco
I am a full-time student, a junior in CSUF, pursuing my bachelors in Business Administration with a concentration in Accounting.
I earn outstanding recommendations from my professors and currently have a 3.26 G.P.A. I regularly use programs like Excel and Word for creating income or balance statements for my Financial Accounting and Managerial classes and business letters and correspondences in my Business Writing classes. I also use these programs to analyze data and make forecasts in my Statistics and Business Calculus classes. I plan on graduating and meeting the 150-unit CPA requirement by May of 2016. I have completed courses outside the field of business (A.A. in Liberal Arts) that have improved my analytical and communication skills.
I have experience with filing and inputting data using a point of sales system in Video Dollar. I am friendly, organized, and regularly arrive before my shift begins to stay on top of new developments within the business. I use my excellent interpersonal skills in both professional and personal settings: my volunteer experience in Alpha Gamma Sigma, recruiting students as members into the club, coordinating activities and teams during volunteer events, and offering my research to the team during staff meetings. I am very proud of the work I have done in Video Dollar and Sweet Tomatoes Restaurants where I greet customers, offer useful facts and specials about the products from my own research, and ensure their experience at the establishment is an enjoyable and gainful one.
My Life
My philosophy toward life is the same I use toward work as well. I believe life asks us to take a leap of faith, and life separates those who jump and those that stay on the ground. I know I am here because of those leaps.
I am with my significant other JudelMay who I see a future with in the years to come. She is one of the motivations that drive to do better in school and in work, and encourages me to do my best. She is a role model to me and we support each other. We are both attending California State University of Fullerton.
