Ciao! My name is Kelly Finegan and I am a junior at the University of Pittsburgh majoring in Global Management. I currently work at the University of Pittsburgh Ticket Office where I get to work in sales and work sporting events. I am in CEA CAPA studying in Florence! I chose Florence because I have always wanted to go throughout my whole life. My sister also studied in Florence two years ago and I knew it was the right place for me. My goals for the program are to learn as much as I can in my classes, specifically my consulting course! I also want to travel throughout Italy and Europe and visit new places and cultures.

My new university has been amazing! I love all of the faculty and staff and find that they are very welcoming each day. The similarities I see through my universities are that I am surrounded by many familiar faces and fellow Pitt Business students. The differences are definitely the class sizes and the lengths of some of my classes. Initially, I loved how walkable my neighborhood is! I am in a great location and have been able to learn the Florence streets very quickly. I live in an apartment with 3 roommates and am adapting very well! Everyday is so exciting and I love being able to explore with people I know and feel comfortable with.
