In Prague, the industry that I am working is tax consulting. Which is great because I have always wanted to go into consulting– especially wealth management. I wanted to go into wealth management because it takes away the cubicle wall from the people you work with, and allows you to talk to your customers. I…

Final Reflection
Ever since I have come back to the States, people have been asking about how my experience abroad was. It is almost like every time I am asked, my brain plays a 10 second fast flashback montage of everything that went well in Prague. Instead of telling them about the montage in my head, I…
Prague at Night, Berlin, and T-Shirts
My family came to Prague this past weekend and will be staying for the week until I have to go. It has been refreshing to see a person that knows my history, and has known me for longer than a month. The first day my parents came, my mom (who does not believe in jet…
Is Leadership Innate?

I am not sure if this is a good thing or not. But when I am talking to someone or walking around in a different city, I conform myself into the person that someone else wants me to be. Maybe it’s not conforming or turning myself into a different person, but rather I bring out…
Locked Out
I mean, you never know where the day takes you, so there will always be some uncertainty in life. Yes, you may have a routine to follow, and the bowl next to the door to put your keys. But what about the mishaps that happen on a day-to-day? The time you forgot to even grab…
Good Timing
It’s so hard to manage your schedule in a new city, a new country, and a new culture. Missing my friends and family, all I want to do is distract myself by meeting new people and visiting new places– doing anything that I want at any time of the day. Muddle the sadness. As I…
