MAJOR Finance

HOMETOWN Portage, Wis. ORGANIZATION UWSP Student Government Association Stevens Point, Wis. TITLE Budget Director

What I did: I oversaw over 150 student organizations, training them on how to be effective leaders, and utilizing their budgets. Acted as a resource for those students for any questions regarding their clubs’ finances, travel, etc. Chaired three budgetary committees, two of which allocated over millions of dollars to departments and student organizations. Mainly a lot of communications and submitting reimbursements for students. What I liked: What I liked about the job was being that resource for students and being able to work with them. Although it was frustrating at times, it was rewarding in the end to see the satisfaction. I also liked the opportunities I got to meet and talk with administration on a regular basis. Future Dream Job: My dream job would be to work in human resources or financial advising.
