I’m thrilled to share that I’ve been accepted to attend the 2025 Business Today International Business Conference, an all-expenses-paid experience bringing together top students and global business leaders in Manhattan, New York! I was among only 2% of applicants Worldwide who was accepted to attend the 51st International Business Conference. This incredible opportunity will allow me to connect with executives, innovators, and other motivated students to discuss the future of international business and leadership. First, I want to thank Kelsey Lam, M.Ed. and Emily Krzyzewski Center for presenting me with this great opportunity. I also want to thank ALPFA Inc - Association of Latino Professionals For America for providing me the resources to advance in my career, and being such a pivotal part of my university experience. I’m extremely grateful to Business Today for making this possible and can’t wait to learn, network, and grow alongside so many inspiring individuals. Last but not least, I want to thank God once again for giving me another year of life in which I was able to advance so much in my early career. He is the reason why I'm able to endure through so much tribulation. All the glory goes to Him. Looking forward to representing University of North Carolina at Greensboro and making the most of this amazing experience! 🌍💼 #BusinessToday #InternationalBusinessConference #Networking #Leadership #Grateful #Business
