Introduction- Lauren Woods

The camp counselor team
Dance Marathon (madiTHON) 2014
Hello! My name is Lauren Woods. I am a junior in the Wisconsin School of Business and I am studying finance and investment banking.Outside of classes I am involved in a couple of different clubs around campus. I am the Vice President of Membership for my sorority, Pi Beta Phi. I am also really involved in a club that was just started last year by my friend group called Lean In. It's a club based around the best seller novel and teaches women how too "sit at the table" and advocate for themselves in the workforce. Finally this past school year I was the Treasurer for Wisconsin Dance Marathon which is an organization that raises money for the American Family Children's Hospital.

This past summer I was lucky enough to work at a church camp in Alexandria Minnesota. This camp is where I gained my love for paddle boarding, fun fact you can rent them on campus for $8. I also managed to play A LOT of volleyball, both indoor and beach, this summer.

This year I'm going to be studying abroad in Barcelona, Spain. I am hoping that by learning and actually using the communicating technology through this class that I will be better prepared to use it while abroad. I am SO excited to have a class that isn't about math or financial sheets, and that is extremely relevant to my everyday life!

  2. Hi Lauren! I had mentioned in class to you that my roommate studied in Barcelona last Spring...so if you have any questions / concerns, I'm positive she would be more than happy to give you any advice you need and I would be happy to get you in contact with her! She had an awesome time and I'm sure you will too!
