LET YOUR FUTURE TAKE FIRE
“With a smaller campus, you can feel like you’re really impacting the people around you. You get to know everybody, and it’s easy to get plugged in. That’s where ACU really shines.”
Hayden Poorman has big plans for his future as an investment banker, perhaps on Wall Street, with his eyes on someday creating his own firm to handle wealth management and financial advising.
He has found ACU the perfect place to gain the skills he’ll need for a successful career.
Along the way, Hayden has also discovered a passion for serving others through leadership positions with Wildcat Week, Student Government Association and the Collegiate Entrepreneurs’ Organization. He even co-founded a Real Estate and Banking Society that has helped several students obtain internships.
“If you want to leave a mark or be able to do anything you want, you’ve got to be active,” he says.
His business studies have opened doors for him through Leadership Summit, which allows students to network with Christian CEOs from around the country, and through classes such as Social Enterprise Consulting, which traveled to Costa Rica during spring break to advise local entrepreneurs.
“Business is a very person-to-person interaction, and if we treat each person like Christ calls us to, I think that’s the highest standard of business,” he says. “ACU is a good place to go after your goals in a Christ-centered environment with the support to make them happen.”
