Hello everyone, my name is Michael Popelas and I am currently in my last semester at The Ohio State University. I am studying Economics and Strategic Communications. I started off as a Communications major because I was very interested in public relations and the crucial role that it plays in business. I decided to also pursue an Economics degree because I am very interested in financial markets and how prices are affected by demand and supply.
I have had two internships that were both communications based. My first internship was with STACK Media. STACK Media publishes the largest high school sports and fitness magazine in the country. During my internship I wrote press releases and daily blogs for STACK's website. Also, I was fortunate enough to be tasked with helping to develop content for STACK's online fitness website. I learned a great deal from my time at STACK. I realized the amount of time and detail that go into public writing and the hard work and research that is needed to write a good article.
Upon graduating I would like to work as an investment banker. I am very interested in stock markets and the ever-changing exchange rates. Also, the opportunity to make a lot of money in the markets makes investment banking a desirable job.
My time at Ohio State has gone by way too quickly. So many times I was told to enjoy my college career because it will go by quicker than I could imagine. Well, that statement has really started to sink in as graduation approaches. However, I have had an unforgettable experience at Ohio State and I live with no regrets. I am excited and looking forward to moving on to the next chapter of my life.
