intro

Hello my name is Sam Sherwood. I'm from Nephi, Ut. I moved there when i was 13 from Coos Bay, OR. I'm a junior transfer student from Snow College, where i got my associates degree and also met my wife. I love to ride motocross. I also like to mountain bike, snowboard and sometimes skateboard. If you like any of those, hit me up and we'll ride! I am a biology major, but still weighing other options. I served an LDS mission in Brazil. I am the seventh of eight children.
-Samuel Sherwood

KC (Not Jacquelyn) Walbom :)

Hi everyone, the name you'll hear in class is Jacquelyn but I go by my middle name KC (have always hated Jacquelyn, just sounds like a mean older lady...) Right? Haha...

I graduated a year and a half early from Weber High in Ogden moved to Salt Lake on my own for awhile, now I'm up here in boring ole Logan. Haha

I'm in this class because I'm an International Business major, I basically want to get paid to travel ;) but also choosing my own hours and destinations would be my dream! You don't know how terrified I am about having a 9-5 job! I want to have mini-retirements through out my life and not work my butt off and gamble on the chance of having one when I'm an old lady.

I have an entertainment website I want to publicise this year and also some little things I want to patent and distribute to local convenient stores within the next 3 years then hopefully nationally.

I'm a freshman technically... going on to my third semester. I've been taking my time but really just want to hurry up my degree and start seeing the world! I really hope to get to know you all this semester and I'm excited have some intelligent conversations in class for a new change!

Sam Christensen

Business Buddies,

My name is Sam Christensen and I am from Alpine, UT.I'm a Sophomore here at USU. I love living in Logan. Something about me that you may find interesting is that I'm the youngest of 7 kids, and I'm the odd one out in my family in almost every way! My Dad is 5'10 and my mother is 5'6, and somehow i am 6'4. I'm 4 inches taller than all 4 of my brothers who all played football at the University of Utah, but i couldn't play football due to a heart condition. I am the only one in my family to attend USU, but also the only one to serve an LDS mission that wasn't spanish speaking or in south america. I recently returned from that mission in Boston, Massachusetts 3 months ago. I'm excited for the class and to get to know everyone a little better.

Introduction

I, Bryan Scoresby, am from the greatest place on earth, Palmer Alaska. It’s a small town about 40 miles north of Anchorage. For the last four years or so I have been taking odd jobs, mostly construction labor, looking for a way to make a living (a backup in the event that my educated career does not work out) and pay for school. I think I have found a job I will stick with in the summers driving a semi side dump for a small gravel hauling company in Anchorage. I enjoy the outdoors, specifically fishing, hiking, hunting and hanging out with a fire. I am just getting started studying mechanical engineering and thinking I want a minor in business. I hope to start my own business in the next year or two, and have a lot of ideas I would like to put in action in both the business world and the engineering world. So, I thought I would come to school, learn how to make them happen, and see if I can do something with it. I am glad to be hear but still looking forward to getting back for an Alaskan summer.

Hello

Hello,

My name is Alex Bilodeau. I'm a business major and I'm just trying to decide what is going to be my emphasis. I think it will either be administrative, entrepenueral, or international. One of my friends took the class last semester and really enjoyed it so I figured since I'm a business major, I should take this business class. I'm a very active person, I work full time, I go to school, and I try to find a little time for my friends and family. Snowboarding and soccer are two of my passions, but I love any sport espcially extreme sports. I'm excited for this class and the semester which is ahead.

Introduction

I am really looking forward to this class. I recently enrolled as a student at Utah State just this semester, and when deciding which classes would be most appropriate for my schedule, I was glad to find time for Business by Design. After hearing great reviews from others, like “eye opening” and “thought provoking”, I’m now just hoping to keep up! Wanting to focus more on engineering as a major, but am also strongly influenced by the business world. Love Mexican food… and love Utah’s snow.
