“I formerly was an intern (as a freshman!!)
at Smith, Griesmeyer, & Moses LLC - an investment and
financial planning firm located in Beavercreek. After my
internship expired, they hired me on part-time. I have
been there now for over a year and a half! This
internship was recommended to me by a great finance
instructor, Bill Wood, and has led me to intend in a
career in financial planning.”
Why Wright State? Wright State truly
cares about their students. But more importantly- so does
the College of Business. If you choose the Raj Soin
College of Business, you will meet with professors who
WANT to get you a job, not because they have to, but
because they want to. Classes are not taught by graduate
students, which may not seem like a big deal to you, but
believe me- it is. Not one class is taught by a graduate
student in the Raj Soin College of Business. If offered a
full scholarship anywhere for the remainder of my
bachelor’s degree- I would not leave WSU and the
RSCOB. The College of Business is top-of-the-line and has
state-of-the-art facilities. Pay us a visit and find
out!
Tips for Success: Get an internship
now. Make sure this is your field. After completing my
internship, I knew that financial services was for me.
But learning about something is only one thing- you have
to sell yourself and your products and services too-
leading me to my dual-major in marketing.
AACSB, and Dean's Student Advisory Board (brief info
about that) The Dean asks for input from his
students - and listens. Tell me another college that does
that.
Leadership: The Dean’s Student
Advisory Board for the College of Business ( I will be
the President next year), The Marketing Department
Student Advisory Board, The Wright-Patt Credit Union
Young Member Advisory Panel, Chief Strategist of the
Finance Club, Resident Assistant in the Honors
Residential Complex and Volunteer for Project Linus.
Career Plans: I plan on obtaining my
CFP(R) or Certified Financial Planner designation and
obtaining several licenses that will allow me to sell
securities and other financial instruments. I then would
like to get my MSFS or Master of Science in Financial
Services degree while helping clients secure their
financial futures. Most valuable
experience: My most valuable experience so far
has been Dr. Ramsey’s Principles of Marketing
class- she truly cares (as do all professors) about her
students’ well-being and is definitely always
willing to help in any way she can. She, like many
professors in the RSCOB, bring tons of real-world
experience with them that “spices” up regular
textbook material.
