Welcome to the blog that will follow my adventures, experiences, and reflections on life. I chose the name Chiripada's Journey as the title for a little something to make my page unique. My family began using the term chiripada after my parents visited the La Chiripada Winery in New Mexico. The name means "a stroke of luck" or "a lucky fluke" which describes the way things often turn out.
Any time we find a great parking space, or catch any type of a lucky break, we shout "Chiripada!"
I have been very fortunate in my life, and feel that Chiripada is a fitting description for the journey that I am on . . . many little strokes of luck!
About Me
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
Welcome!
In about a week I will leave for a five-week experience where I will study entrepreneurship in Europe. With this blog I hope to share my adventures with family, friends, and curious others.
I decided to study entrepreneurship to continue learning in an interdisciplinary manner and to have flexible career options when I graduate. The European Experience Study Abroad Program is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me to visit international business centers, meet with entrepreneurs, take classes, and travel extensively. Attending the trip has been my dream since I became a business student, due to the exceptional prospects for educational development and personal growth.
From my Baylor education, I have gained knowledge about the fundamentals and applications of numerous subjects, grown in faith, and developed a better understanding of who I am and where I am called to go. I seek to work in the business world because I feel that I have an ethical perspective on business practices, as well as many qualities and experiences that will distinguish me as an outstanding employee.
I have a passion for fusing my backgrounds in business and sociology, and I plan to use this approach to improve ethics and functionality in the business world. It will also make a highly effective outreach and education tool for people without thorough business knowledge to make smart financial decisions.
Attending the Entrepreneurship Study Abroad Program will allow me to gain a first-hand global perspective of business and interact with international entrepreneurs. Upon my return from Europe, I will enter the workforce and use the knowledge gained from my experience to help others make worldly business decisions.
