Thank you so much for checking out my campaign with the ultimate goal of studying abroad in Prague, Czech Republic. I’m set to begin my senior year of college this fall, and an imperative component of my degree is a study abroad experience. As I look to become a more culturally aware student/citizen during my undergraduate career, studying in Prague would be an excellent capstone to my time at ASU. As a W.P Carey student, I am continuously challenging myself to become further aware of prevalent issues that our ever-increasingly global economy will be facing in the forthcoming years. There is a significant amount of buzz presently in the financial industry regarding the recent shift of political power in American politics. Throughout my study abroad experience, I hope to gain additional perspectives as to how this exchange in political power affects people throughout the world, and not just myself and others domestically. This is something that I would not be able to experience while studying at the Tempe campus.

I will take my 12 credits of course work in upper-division finance/economics courses from The University of Economics in Prague into my final semester at ASU and graduate with my Bachelor’s degree in Finance, as well as a minor in economics and certificate in International Business. With so many opportunities ahead, my journey is in no way finished but completing this study abroad program and my Bachelor’s degree will be a life changing accomplishment.

I am currently working two jobs and taking a full course load this semester, yet I need your help to fund my study abroad program and make this dream a reality. The total cost for my trip is around $10,000. My current and future savings amount to merely half of that, which I have deducted from my Program Fee posted on this page, so my goal is to fundraise $5,000. If you are able to support my campaign, a contribution of any amount will help me get closer to my goal. I can’t wait to get my feet on the ground in Prague and I look forward to the prospect of this incredible adventure. Thank you for visiting my page!
