It took me ten days of vacation in Daytona Beach to be convinced to enroll at Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. As a second semester sophomore, I am very pleased with my decision.
My name is Beatrice Enckell. I am majoring in Business Management with a minor in Communication at Embry Riddle Aeuronautical University. I grew up in Sweden with my parents and two siblings. At the age of 15, I got accepted to a high school focused on business and track and field. Since I always liked doing sports, but also had an interest in business, I found this as a great opportunity. Even though the decision included moving away from home I accepted the offer.
Living by myself was a great experience, and I learned quickly to better appreciate the small things. After three years in high school, graduating with top grades, I got a job offer at a bank in Sweden, Nordea. I received education in finance and the stock market, and after a couple of weeks I worked with customer service, including financial investment advice. I stayed with Nordea for one and a half years until I decided to begin my bachelor degree.
I had one specific goal with my university degree: to improve my English. The world is globalized and appropriate and professional English skills will be required from me wherever I apply for a job in the future.
I came to Daytona for vacation with my family in the spring of 2008. After a meeting with the president of Embry Riddle, and the head coach of Track and Field, I was not only convinced but also very motivated to begin at the university.
