Changes

My name is Britnee McCauley. Although I currently reside in Maryland, I but was born in Plainfield, Illinois. While in Illinois, I earned my associate's degree in Business Administration at Joliet Junior College. Right In 2020, right before the pandemic struck, I moved to Maryland and started attending Bowie State University. In May 2022, I completed my Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Management. When Fall 2022 came aroundThen in May 2024, I decided to continue completed my education by pursing a Master’s Degree degree in Business Administration, also at BSU. The reason I chose a major in business is because I developed a passion for it business at an early age, since I was surrounded by my family's owned alarm service company growing up. I also have a passion for education. I believe that the more knowledge we gain, the more we learn about the world and how to better ourselves. I know if I would have stayed in Illinois I would have been limited to the resources A goal of my environment. I have since found a greater appreciation for travel as it has led me to a HBCU where I am able to dive deeper into my culture. My goal mine is to help make a difference in secondary education by teaching business skills to the younger generations, so that they learn valuable lessons that will help them when they become independent. Not to mention, I am so happy that by attending BSU I had the opportunity to join the University Innovation Fellows Program in 2021. I had the pleasure of returning as a FAB in 2022 and am thrilled to be continuing as a UIguide for 2023.

I currently work in the federal government, which would have been an opportunity that I may not have received if I didn’t relocate. Also, by attending a HBCU I was able to dive deeper into my culture and had many doors that opened up.  Not to mention, I am so happy that by attending BSU I had the opportunity to join the University Innovation Fellows Program in 2021.
