ELEVATOR PITCH

My name is Greenly and I am a junior at Salve studying finance with a minor in marketing. Over the summer I had the opportunity to intern at Innovate Newport marketing for their Blue Tech Talks, giving me exposure to the business and marketing side of an organization. I also work as a Barista strengthung my communication skills and ability to work in a fast paced environment. And I worked at the ITHF in the pro shop where I booked courts, handled transactions and worked directly with customers.

All these experiences were very different but were able to teach me adaptability, working in a fast pace environment and communication. I’ve relized that I enjoy being challenged and learning how diffrent parts of an organization work.

One of the things that attracted me to the FLDP was the ability to develop my knowledge in finance and while also getting exposure to different areas of finance. I think with my flexibility and experience with working with different teams would allow me to contribute while also gaining a lot from this program.

Why Siemens?

Siemens has so much to offer in the finance field, especially since it’s a global company.

Siemens also uses technology to help improve people’s lives (transport, health equipment, even home appliances) which is very inspiring as that is something that is important to me, to help people.

Siemens also works to be more eco-friendly

Why the FLDP

The FLDP gives a great opportunity to explore different careers in finance. I came to Salve as an undecided major, and was very grateful I got the experience to explore different majors. So being able to explore different areas of finance will definitely be very helpful for me

Also give the opportunity to live somewhere I wouldn’t normally, super exciting

Why Finance?

• I wanted a challenge

• I found myself gravitating more towards data+ finance courses (data side of marketing)

• I liked using numbers to figure out how to help a business and better understand a business

Working 3 jobs: I had 3 jobs this summer so it was very important for me to be intentional when planning my schedule. There were times when either me or a manger would mess up the schedule, so when that happened I would first see if there was something on my end that I could do to fix it (swap a shift), if not I’d talk to my manger as soon as I can and see if there’s a way to fix it.

STAR QUESTION:

ITHF: my first day working at the hall of fame and I was mabye only a couple hours into my shift when I had been informed the person training me was leaving for a dentist appointment and I was to man the desk by myself. This was a little nerve racking but I knew I just really needed to rely on what I had already learned that day. Was able to get through the day.
