What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to apply my analytical skills in a dynamic environment, where I can contribute to meaningful projects and continue to grow professionally.

My name is Caroline Bunting, and I am a dedicated political science and history student with a passion for understanding the intricacies of governance and community engagement. Currently pursuing my Bachelor of Science at the University of Oregon, I have maintained a GPA of 3.52 while actively participating in various leadership roles and community service initiatives.

Throughout my academic journey, I have gained valuable experience through internships and volunteer work. At Crescent Capital Group, I conducted credit research and supported investment analysis, honing my analytical skills and attention to detail. As the Head Golf Coach at TGA Premier Youth Golf & Tennis, I developed strong communication and instructional abilities while working with young children. My commitment to empowering others is evident in my role as a Leadership Volunteer with The Teen Project, where I mentor former foster youth and help them acquire essential life skills.
