Business in the Liberal Arts

My name is Alejandra, although my friends call me Ale. I was born and raised in Spain where I haved lived all my life with my family. I have a twin brother who is currently studying in Amsterdam, and no, we do not look alike. I speak Spanish and English fluently as I have been studying in an International school since I was three. Having studied in an International school has made me very open-minded in regards to learning about different cultures and their respective traditions. 

My name is Caitlin French and I am a senior at St. Lawrence University. I am studying Business in the Liberal Arts and Communications. I am interested in pursuing a career in marketing or public relations after graduation. I am passionate about using creative strategy to promote companies and organizations that work to give back or solve issues in our society. I also hope to start a business or non-profit of my own one day.

I am a Senior and am majoring in economics and business in the liberal arts with a minor in philosophy. Aside from my academics, I am captain of the Track and Field team and compete primarily in the high hurdles. I am also a peer tutor for the economics department and am working part-time for RTS, the company I interned with this past summer.

My name is Tyler Grochot and I am a senior at St. Lawrence University. I am an extremely curious individual and love entrepreneurship, firefighting, music and yoga. At SLU I was a varsity football player and played quarterback. I recently just completed an internship in project management and loved it. 

I am currently a senior at St. Lawrence from Cheshire, Connecticut and have been a member of the varsity football program since my arrival on campus.  As a double major in business in the liberal arts and psychology I have taken part in a diverse educational experience that has given me a strong understanding of a variety of topics and fields unlike anything I could have imagined.  I will be spending my final semester at SLU participating in a study abroad program in Sorrento, Italy this fall before venturing out into my post graduation endeavors.

Tim is a senior double majoring in Economics and Business, minoring in Government. This summer he worked as an Exchange Generalist Intern at IEX Exchange.

He participated in two off-campus programs in London and NYC, in Fall 2021 and Spring 2022, respectively. Tim is also a North American chess champion, and six times national Olympic medalist.

My name is Chris Urban and I am a rising junior ('24) at St. Lawrence University pursuing a B.A. degree in business and economics. My internship experience with 914INC-Westchester Magazine gave me an excellent opportunity to publish meaningful work, build a portfolio of content, and discover more about the publishing industry.

I am currently a senior at St. Lawrence University from Severna Park, Maryland. Throughout my years here, I've been lucky enough to be a part of the varsity lacrosse program and crown royalties investment club. Pursuing a double major In Business In the Liberal Arts and Economics, coupled with a statistics minor, has allowed me to explore my interests in finance while building upon my analytical and quantitative skills.

My name is Barrett Smith. I am a senior from Lake Placid, NY majoring in Economics and Business. 

Jack Saltus '23 is an Economics and Business double major from Westport, Connecticut. He is interested in investment and portfolio management, which he developed through various internships including his work during the summer of 2022 at Bespoke Investment Group. He hopes that the research conducted and the skills learned with Bespoke will help him on a path that allows him to continue to grow and succeed wherever the economic and financial worlds take him in the very near future.

     I believe that the culture you come from shapes your personality but doesn't define who you are. Ciao, my name is Benedetta and I come from Rome, Italy. I'm your classic Italian girl: loud, picky eater, loves pasta, uses hand gestures. Yes, stereotypes of my country are mostly accurate, except for the fact that we're always late, that's a major lie. Although these stereotypes may be part of me, they don't are me. It's unfortunately common, and it's a mistake I sometimes make too, to just look at the superficial side of people.

ENGLISH:

I am Sam Pijpers and I am from Amsterdam, Netherlands but I am currently living in Hong Kong with my parents. I am bilingual student, I speak fluent Dutch and English. My pronouns are he/him and I'm a 19 year old male, as I write this. 

Soccer is my number one sport and I'm part of St. Lawrence University's Men's soccer team. I have followed the sport ever since I can remember, my idols are Lionel Messi and Johan Cruijff. I am not sure if you might know this team but I support Ajax, which is a team from Amsterdam. 

My Name is Filip Brůna, I am from the Czech Republic. I was born there and grew up there. The Czech Republic is a beautiful place for anyone to come and visit, although people may be a little toxic at times, I can guarantee you would have a grate time exploring the wonders of Prague and other Czech cities. They are full of history and wonderful food.

I am from Onsala, Sweden which is a small village on the southern west coast of Sweden. It has a history of farming and fishing but nowadays most people live in normal homes. I have lived at the same horse farm in my whole life; it is the same house that my mum grew up in and the same house her dad lived in his whole life too. Our house was moved in 1917 to where it stands now, earlier it had been a dairy in the same village since the 1850's. Our house and farm is full of history, Swedish farmer history that I am proud of.
