My Passion and Goals

My name is Andrew Cabral and I am going into my senior year of high school at Cal High.  I am very involved in the school, and am serving as the ASB President this year at Cal.  Leadership has always been one of my passions, I love working with people to reach a common goal.  To me, working with others to complete a task has its most direct ties into a career in business, which has also become a passion of mine.  My dad is a CFO (Chief Financial Officer) of his company that works to create cloud software for pharmaceutical companies, and he has always been my biggest role model.  He has inspired me to follow my passion, which is one of the main reasons why I applied to be in the iQuest class.  Going into my senior year, I have high hopes for college.  I have always prided myself in being self-motivated and a hard worker, and I hope to be accepted into my dream school, UCLA.  I will be spending this year applying to colleges across the nation, working at Splash swim school, and getting great real-world experience in the business field through my internship. I am applying to many colleges as an Economics major, and I hope to take my first step into my future career through my internship and through taking the AP Economics class this year.  I work at Splash Swim School, and it is one of my favorite places to be.  I love working with kids and finding creative ways to get them to reach their goals.  I have began a summer internship at a company in Pleasanton called Veeva Systems, but I am not sure how long into the school year I will be continuing it.  I am currently looking for companies closer to Cal, but in the meantime continuing my internship while searching for other potential business to intern for.  At Veeva, I intern in marketing and help to give Veeva more of a brand.  In the internships that I am looking for, I would like to intern in more of a business management type position to gain more experience in that field and to see if that is truly the career path that I would wish to take.  I am very, very excited for my senior year, and I have high hopes for how this year will turn out.  I am most excited to figure out what college I will be going to in the fall of 2017, and to take my first family trip to Europe, a place that I have wanted to go ever since I was younger.
