About Me

 Hi everyone my name is Connor Addington, I've been born and raised in Oregon my whole life. I'm very passionate about animals especially my little puppy named Oliver and about sports since I played them growing up. I had to take this class as a prerequisite since I'm currently a Business Administration major but once at OSU I'll change it to sports management/ marketing. I'm a very big fan of marketing since it can help expand your company but at the same time it can also ruin it like we saw with multiple companies in the past two years.
