Meet Faith Nimely, a third-year student majoring in accounting and January’s Student Spotlight. Faith grew up in Liberia in West Africa before moving to the U.S. in April 2009. Faith attended high school in Groveport, Ohio, where she graduated as her class valedictorian. The incredible achievement was also instrumental in helping Faith overcome her fear of public speaking.

For the December Student Spotlight, we sat down with graduating senior Jesse Wildman. Jesse is excited to be graduating, but lately he has been reminiscing about his college experience. There is a great deal of nostalgia, and he considers himself grateful to be in his current position.

Max Wasserman knew from the age of nine that he was going to become a Marine. On September 17, 2010, he fulfilled his childhood dream by officially enlisting. Sometime later he found himself in San Diego undergoing 13 weeks of training that was structured to the minute. By the end of the training, he received his insignia and officially became a Marine for life.

Meet Alli Esker, a third-year student majoring in finance with minors in economics and design thinking. Her finance roots began when she was just 12 years old when she asked her dad for a Roth IRA, a type of retirement account. Now 21, her explanation for her curiosity about the IRA hasn’t changed: “It just makes sense, I did the research.”
