Introduction

Hi everyone,

In this post I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. First off, my name is Bryce Harrold and I am currently a Finance major here at the University of Florida. I was born and raised in Pompano Beach, FL and for those of you who do not know where that is, it is practically Fort Lauderdale. I come from a family of four which includes: me, my mother and father, and my younger brother who is about to graduate from high school. I grew up going to a small Christian private school with about 400 kids, so coming to UF was definitely a culture shock, however I have loved my time here and would never trade my experiences thus far for anything.
As a I have gone through college, I have changed my career interests multiple times. I am currently a sophomore, but when I originally arrived at UF, I was a biology major on the pre-med track. I thought that I was destined to be the next great orthopedic surgeon to come out of UF medical school, but quickly realized that the sciences were not my true passion as I assumed they would be. This summer I switched my major to Finance to pursue things that I felt much more passionate about and currently I am interesting in becoming either a business analyst or a business consultant. I have learned that the business world has ample opportunities for me, and that has been the most exciting part of my switch to the Heavener Business School.
However enough of the boring stuff and a little bit more about me. First and foremost, I love absolutely love sports. I was a four-year varsity basketball player and the team captain in high school, and nothing gets me more excited then seeing the Gators play on Saturdays at the Swamp, as well as watching the basketball team at the O'Dome. Also, I love being boating, being on the water, and water sports in general. Coming from South Florida, it has been a really strange seeing all these trees and no real bodies of water, but I'm getting used to it slowly. Other than that I'm a pretty laid back person who is always down to have a good time with friends. That about sums up everything that you'd need to know about me; comment if you'd like to know anything else!

-Bryce
