What is your favorite Seidman memory?
My favorite Seidman memories have been developing relationships with each of my professors and as many classmates as possible. These are relationships that I will proudly carry with me beyond my time as an undergrad.
Our building namesake – Bill Seidman – exhibited many desirable traits of a leader such as an innovator, integrity, curiosity, and future-minded. How did your experience at Seidman help you develop one or more of these traits?
From my experience, Seidman has done a great job motivating students such as myself to focus on professional development. This has encouraged me to be more future-minded as I have progressed toward graduation and into the professional environment.
What would you like people in the community to know about Seidman graduates like you?
The Seidman community is very tight-knit and that is something that we will bring into the greater Grand Rapids community.
What is your career aspiration?
My career aspiration is to become an expert in investment banking and private equity.
How did your time at Seidman College prepare you to contribute to your community as a Laker for a Lifetime?
At Seidman, I have been introduced to many mentors that have helped guide me throughout my journey. After graduation, I aim to repay the favor and mentor many young professionals in the Grand Valley community.
