MGT 457 - International Business Seminar: Final Semester Project
Wearables: The Technology of Now
This was a semester long paper for my final class for my major of International Business. It was on a topic of our choosing, and with the intense and rapid expansion of wearable technologies, I wanted to incorporate how the world population is consumed with these new, meaningless products. I wanted to research the steps we were taking as a population to utilize these new advances in technology to create a more sustainable standard of life for developing nations. I thoroughly enjoyed learning more about the advances we are taking, and hope that my research informed more people about the wonderful things we are doing as a global population.
BIS 485 - SAP Configuration and Implementation
This was a week long project that was for my final SAP class. I was required to set up a new company code within the system for Canada (all prior company codes were for the United States). This required me to go through all the configuration steps between the modules, as well as learn how the tax codes within the system would affect the other modules, as well as affect the other company codes for different countries. We were required to go through the transaction steps then for the materials we had already created for the other company code.
We were required to document every step, and list them as if it were to be given to someone who had never used SAP previously. This was one of the more time consuming projects I have worked on, but it was definitely one of the most rewarding projects I have finished.
*The final project was over 100 pages long, and therefore too large of a file to attach to my online portfolio. If you have any interest in viewing it, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Finance 573 - International Finance: Final Semester Project
BMW Expansion into South Korea - Through Partnership With Samsung
This was a semester long project for my International Finance class, during my fall semester of my senior year. The goal of the project was to choose a company and develop a business plan to have them expand into a foreign country.
My group decided to chose the company BMW, and have them develop a deeper relationship with one of their already established partners, Samsung. Our project focused on BMW expanding into a Samsung plant in Seoul, to work on the self-driving technology for their cars. We believe that due to the high demand for luxury cars in South Korea, especially in the city of Seoul, along with the advanced technology, this would be a great strategic move on BMW's part.

German Study Abroad Final Project
This was the final project for my German language class. It is a video a little over five minutes long, and it comprised of me, and two girls from my class. We discussed our favorite places, food, and drinks found in Berlin. It was a small overview of our seven week study abroad trip, just shadowing a few things that we really enjoyed in Berlin.
