1. Faisal Alyahya
Summary
I have been raised in a huge business disciplined family with tough competition from relatives
and siblings. Where I had to leave the country at a young age to enhance my knowledge of what
and how to make a business successful. At the age of 9, my dad too me to study in Beijing,
China for 2 years at BISS (Beijing International Shanghai Schools) where I had to develop and
start speaking and learning English as well as understand the deep heritage of the Chinese
culture. After the 2 years I went back home and took from 14 to 16 courses a year in both Arabic
and English languages together. At the age of 14, I had to go to Dubai, UAE for a summer
leadership program that focused on professional discipline to enhance my professional and
leadership skills. Now as a young adult I am in Texas, USA pursuing a Bachelor degree in
Finance at the University of North Texas. I have been traveling my whole life getting to meet
people and explore many cultures from across the globe. That has helped me understand much
more of how the world and business come together economically and how things occur.
My current goal is graduating with a BBA in Finance discipline with impressive work experience
whether in part time jobs, internships or obtaining certifications that would be available to be a
part of while making my way to graduate. Taking advantage of the summer for an internship or a
part time job would give me a great experience to add on to my knowledge. My overall goal is
reaching success in operating my own company whether in production and selling goods or an
investment firm. After graduation my aim is to work for either a bank or an investment company
while being open to other opportunities that can occur in the process of employment. That would
give me a huge push to move forward and pursue and gain a law degree to complete my
educational goal.
I had been exposed to many types of school systems like American, British, and Australian
curriculums. Graduating high school with a 3.75 GPA out of 4 becoming one of the top 10% of
my graduating class. While taking IELTS (International English Language Testing System) a
British system run standardized test that is applied across the world with many companies
requiring it for international employees, Scoring a 6.5 in the test. Other exams that I have been
exposed to are SAT, RAM I, RAM II and IGCSE’s in Math. Taking all of those Standardized
exams while taking 18 high school courses at the same time. I am a current Undergraduate
Finance student in the University of North Texas.
At the age of 20 I have had a variety of different work experiences. From working in retail
business to a family run business. I have worked for six months at Jarir bookstores which is
similar to virgin megastores. Jarir bookstores have over a 40 branches across the middle east.
Also, I have worked in a family run restaurant business in Saudi Arabia for 3 months. I have had
the pleasure to experience how to supervise a huge operating business that has no holiday. I am
capable of sharing my thoughts and ideas professionally and working as a team member. I
always have a person to look at my work after I do it for more efficient delivery. I am also
available to travel if there are work projects in other states or countries.

2. I have a friendly active personality that is thirsty for understanding everything and getting
involved in new things. I am open to meet new interesting people out of school/work in a proper
environment. Feel free to contact me through my Email: fe9ooly.2013@hotmail.com.
