Amherst, Massachusetts
I am a third year finance student studying at the Isenberg School of Management at UMass Amherst. One of my greatest hobbies is fitness. I can talk about fitness for hours, I can spend days at the gym, and I can spend days if not weeks watching fitness related videos. My passion for fitness was burning inside of me from a very young age. I have been playing cricket for 17 years now, I used to wrestle in highschool, I travelled to Egypt for a volleyball tournament, and I am currently preparing for my first ever powerlifting meet.
My goal is to create a healthier world. That may sound naive, but it is a task that I am determined to accomplish. I am currently working on a business concept that will allow for nutritious yet delicious foods to be available to college students (and eventually to the whole world!). I have previously built a $50m business model for a world-leading insurance company (AXA), I have had experience working in the accounting industry, and I have also worked in banking. I have a strong grasp of what it will take for me to accomplish my goal and I believe that it is possible.
