Hi there! My name is James, and I’m a finance major with a passion for personal growth, smart money management, and making the most of college life. When I’m not crunching numbers or diving into financial trends, you can usually find me on the basketball court, representing my university as part of our team. 🏀

Funny enough, I didn’t start out as a finance major—I was all set to major in literature. I’ve always loved storytelling and writing, which explains why I started this blog. But somewhere along the way, I realized my true calling was in understanding how the world works financially. That, combined with my love for sports, helped me see how these two worlds connect in powerful ways.

I created College and Finance to share what I’ve learned about navigating college, budgeting, and staying on top of your goals—all while balancing sports, studies, and life. Whether you’re an athlete, a student, or just looking to better understand the finance world, this blog is for you. Let’s build a smarter, brighter future together!
