Meet peer advisor Matt!
Matt chose his majors of Finance and Accounting because he was interested in learning about the building blocks of business; how businesses make money and function.  He was also excited to take on these two majors because he knew that he would always be challenged to learn something new!  Matt has used his business skills at summer internships including Sales and Trading within Goldman Sachs and in Private Wealth at Merrill Lynch.  At BC Matt enjoys his involvement in the Investment Club and playing intramural sports.  His best advice to the undergrads in CSOM is to stay true to yourself and your interests while at BC and really focus on what you are good at!  He also suggests taking advantage of the alumni networks and career center as they are great resources and that students also take the time to have fun at college since it only lasts four years!  Some final fun facts about Matt are that he loves snowboarding, traveling to foreign countries, and playing tennis.

Meet peer advisor Margo! 
Margo is majoring in Operations Management and Finance.  She likes that both concentrations can help her move towards her goal of working on the logistics/supply chain of a luxury car company.  She also found the combination to be a perfect fit for her interests because Finance is a very broad area of study while Operations Management is smaller and very focused.  Margo spent some of her time away from BC studying at the University of Carlos III in Madrid, Spain.  She has also worked as a corporate finance and restructuring intern at FTI Consulting and as a business analytics/market research intern at Science Application International Corporations (SAIC).  At BC, Margo is involved in Women in Business, Alpha Sigma Nu Honor Society, and the Finance Academy.  She is worldly, having been born in Okinawa, Japan and being able to speak German, though now resides in Great Falls, Virginia.  Margo’s advice to other undergraduates is to study hard early on to create a solid GPA because the work only gets harder as an upperclassman.  She also recommends getting involved, whether through clubs, social events, or Career Center fairs because they are all great ways to meet new people.
