Majors:
Finance, Business Economics Double Major
Reason for joining LAM:
I joined as a Freshman in the Fall of 2017 due to interest in learning more about the stock market and other investing activities. I was originally only a Finance major, and I was encouraged to pick up another major or minor in order to get more out of what the University has to offer. I have family members that work as investment managers, so I already knew a little bit about how the market works, but LAM has led me to look into pursuing a career in the field in the near future.
