Welcome to My Journey: College, Projects, and Financial Independence

Hi, I’m Jen, a chemical engineering student at the University of Alabama. Growing up on a small ranch taught me resourcefulness, curiosity, and the value of hard work—lessons that have guided me through college and beyond. Those early experiences inspired me to pursue engineering and shaped the way I approach challenges in both my studies and personal projects.

I started this blog to share my journey, the lessons I’ve learned along the way, and practical tips that I’ve found helpful for students, aspiring engineers, and anyone interested in building their future. Here, you’ll find insights on everything from college projects and internships to financial planning, side hustles, and entrepreneurship.

In addition to my studies, I run a small design business, helping both individuals and business owners bring their creative ideas to life. Balancing school, projects, and a business has taught me a lot about time management, adaptability, and turning skills into opportunities—lessons I hope to share with you here.

One of the things I’m most proud of is setting up my financial future while still in college—including saving my first six figures. I want to show you how I achieved this, the mindset it took, and actionable strategies that can help you build your own financial foundation early.

Beyond finance and business, I’ll share behind-the-scenes looks at the projects I’ve been working on in college, lessons in adaptability and problem-solving, and other tips for navigating student life. My goal is to give you a mix of inspiration, practical advice, and a glimpse into the daily grind of balancing school, projects, and personal growth.

Thank you for stopping by! I’m excited to share this journey with you, and I hope you find ideas, motivation, and value in what I post. Follow along—there’s a lot more coming, and I can’t wait to share it with you!

Roll Tide!
