My name is Ewelina and I am a student at LaGuardia CC with a major in Business Administration. So far, I have taken English 101, Pre-calculus, Introduction to Business, Microeconomics, Business Law, Accounting 1, Elementary Statistics, Principles of Marketing, English 102 and Fundamentals of Professional Advancement. These courses give me a total of 32 credits. My current G.P.A. is 3.85/4.0. During this semester I am taking Accounting II, Principles of Management, Introduction to Computers, Oral Communication and Urban Sociology.


   I love challenges where I am responsible for certain things to be done. I love to travel, run around the city with my notes full of appointments and have conversations with new people. I enjoy helping people with their paper work like also with creating new ideas in a team. I like to ask and be advised. I prefer phone calls and meetings instead of mailing and sending text messages.


    In my major I had the opportunity to learn different types of business fields. My future goal is to be a successful entrepreneur or work for a busy company in a top position. That is why the knowledge about business differentiation is priceless for me right now. It helps me finding the career that I would like to do in the future. I really enjoy Marketing because it is a very powerful field where you have many possibilities to influence a customer’s choice. Another course that gave me a lot of satisfaction was Business Law. I have learned there that knowing rules and being tricky at the same time helps a lot to achieve a victory.


     I used to work for an organization that was helping children with developmental problems. Thanks to this experience I improved my team work skills. Also I was living by myself during high school in Poland. I was taking care of bills and my small budget. This helped me to become more organized and responsible for my own decisions. I do enjoy numbers so studying higher math during my high school developed my mathematical skills that I would like to use in my future career.


    Even though I study full time, I work part time in a small bridal jewelry company. The job gives me a lot of satisfaction because I work as a partner for my boss. She discusses all the important aspect of the company with me before she makes any crucial decisions. I try to help her with paper work, bills, customer service or even advertising. This job is priceless for me because I not only practice some of my classes from school but also I gain experience for my future career. After LaGuardia CC I would like to transfer to a 4 year college for a bachelor degree and working in this company practically points the fields in business that I could study more.


    Even though I have not specified my future plans, I always look for new challenges in a variety of fields. It improves my skills and helps me to find out the best activity to do throughout my life.
