A Little About Me...

 * My name is Lisa Marie, a bright, witty, charming 24 year old mississauga gal. Born in raised in the suburbs I grew up on a tree lined court, with plenty of children around to cause trouble. I've grown up with two brothers, (I'm a middle child), so I was raised playing video games, pranking, and an automatic entrant to fight club; I may be a little rough around the edges.

 * I had a child at a somewhat young age, (19), before I started my University education. I am now blessed with a beautiful 4 year old boy, goes by Tycen, and couldn't be happier with the turnout.I enjoy many outdoor activities with my little one including park days, golfing, soccer, and of course a day at the movies. I currently work at Coach (a retail brand some may be familiar with). During the school year I restrict my hours to part time, while during the summer I usually try to work as much as possible. Alot of my hobbies are costly, for example, travelling.



Still interested?! Theres more...

 * In my spare time, (when I have some...), I like to do anything and everything! I'm very spontaneous and enjoy trying new things. Travelling is one of my favourite past times. I find it inspirational visiting different countries and cultures and of course an all inclusive vacation doesn't hurt... I enjoy reading, playing piano, and snowboarding as well. I actually wrecked my knee snowboarding about a year and a half ago, tore the acl, and have been hobbling around ever since. I go for surgery on June 21, and although I enjoy thrill seeking, needles give me the creeps!!! I was also not pleased to find out that the recovery goes on for 6 months . The only thing thats getting me through this stressfull wait is knowing I'll be able to snowboard again by next season. Whoooo!

Ride on...

 * Like I mentioned previously, I am currently attending the University of Guelph. That's actually what brought me to Wikipedia today. I am currently working towards my Bachelor of Commerce degree majoring in Management Economics. I recently thought to try and integrate a minor in Mathematics into the equation, which had me signed up in an interesting and useful Computers course. I have plenty of plans when it comes to my career and education goals. Once I finish my undergrad, I plan on taking my CFA designation hopefully leading into the Business working world. The CFA is a Chartered Financial Analyst designation, and is definately recommended for anyone looking to enter into investing. After a year or so of getting familiar with the industry I plan on returning to school to complete my Masters of Finance (hopefully at Rotmans - UofT), with my fuuuuuuuture sights set on obtaining my Ph.D in Economics. I want to work mostly in investment banking, or possibly in a government position. I plan on becoming the youngest person to win the Nobel Prize in Economics, and no, its not just you, alot of people think I'm crazy, my previous goal of becoming the first woman, was snatched a few years ago. I understand the things I want to acheive do not come easy, but I am definately prepared to put in the hardwork and dedication to be successfull.

Welcome to the wacky world of Lisa Marie.
