I was born and raised in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. I did elementary, middle, and high school over there. After I graduated I decided to do my college studies in the United States. Currently I am a senior in Manhattanville College in New York. My major is Finance and also have a minor in Political Science. I first started with Music Management but then as time passed, I started to get interested in the economy and its markets and that is how I started to study Finance.

I plan to graduate with a Bachelors of Arts degree. After that, my plan is to get a job in an investment banking firm in New York City and keep playing with my band. After a couple of years working in New York City, I want to do my masters in a economics school in London. The way I would like to do this is by trying to get the company that I am working for to transfer me to a branch in London, and that way I could have a working experience there while doing my masters. Also I would like become part of the music world in London since the music industry over there is really big and that is my hobby and passion.

I think that this class would help me understand and improve the various types of copywriting used in the mass media today. Also it will make me understand effectively the role of communication in the world today since in the finance and music world, communication plays a big role.

I think that it is really cool how you want to study in London and get into the music industry over there. The industry in London is different from here so you will have your hands full learning a new system, but it sounds like fun. You can definitely use the information you have learned in your finance studies in the music industry also because a lot of the music industry is based around money. It seems like you enjoy exploring so I hope your dream of studying in London becomes a reality.

I think it's great that you have all these exciting goals! From your post, I can tell you are a really motivated individual with a number of talents (you seem as though you're doing well in both the economics and music fields).

Good luck in the future!
