It's me
I was wondering if after all these weeks you'd like to meet, to go over everything..
Honestly though, I would like to take this time to introduce myself to the greater ENT3003 community. My name is Anthony Davila; I was born and raised in Orlando, Florida with my Mom, Dad, and little sister. Now, I'm a sophomore marketing major with minors in both Innovation and Spanish. One way or another, I am working towards getting my master's in International Business here at UF. For the benefit of my lovely audience, I'd like to split this post up into a couple sections: What I do, What I want to Do, and Miscellaneous Anthony Trivia.
What do I do?
Besides fulfilling my duties as a student, I'm committed to a few organizations around UF. I work closely with the Hispanic Student Association, and have been a director for their MLP and HLSA programs. I am an alumni member of the Heavener Leadership Challenge, one of the business school's fantastic many opportunities. One other organization I'm proud to be a part of is my fraternity, Pi Lambda Phi. I was initiated in Spring '15 and strive to keep our chapter dominant socially, academically, and service-wise.
Strictly for fun, however, you can catch me being extraordinarily mediocre on the basketball and volleyball courts. I played both sports in high school and received many offers for discounts at Sports Authority, but sadly no offers to play at the collegiate level. Besides sports, my other passion is music. I have played drums for 10 years both in rock bands and in the marching band. Unfortunately, it is very hard to continue that as a hobby in the close confines of my apartment. I also enjoy making electronic music and DJ'ing. So when any of you want your event/party to pop off, contact DJ Point 5 at anthonydav13@gmail.com!
What do I want to do?
I'm sure all of us can relate to this question, and the press conference that family gatherings seem to become once you enter college. However, as annoying as it might be to repeat yourself, this question should always be on your mind. Success doesn't come because you wish really hard, you have to find a direction to go in and follow it whole heartedly. My career goals are to earn a position as a senior level manager in marketing/advertising or start consulting for other firms. This way, I can keep my creative process and use my skills in public speaking and team-building. Once I have a stable career, I'd like to finally continue with my ambitions to operate a non-profit start up. The two ideas I want to build on are an integrated network for finding foster care or a restaurant to provide food and work opportunity to struggling youths.
Ok, so what do I really want to do in life? That answer would probably be more along the lines of music festivals, traveling, camping, writing, taking photos, volunteering, being a decent human being, etc.
