Introduction

I guess I'll do the typical college introduction: My name is Emily Buzby, I'm a third year accounting major from Orange Park, Florida.


I've lived in Orange Park, a suburb outside of Jacksonville, all my life.  My family is great! I have a younger sister, who unfortunately goes to FSU, divorced parents who are both remarried, and supportive grandparents who live nearby.  They are all super supportive, but with high expectations.  My mom, uncle, sister, and I were all high school valedictorians which should provide evidence as to how important school has always been to my family.

West Virginia Skiing

So I'm an accounting major.  Like most, I plan to start with one of the Big 4 firms and see how things go from there.  But what I'm most excited about is being a mom.  I can't wait to have two or three little ones running around my house!


I haven't traveled much recently.  In elementary school my family took a trip around the border of the U.S., but that's hard to remember.  I've also been to Canada and the Bahamas.  My favorite trips are definitely ski trips, but I haven't taken one of those since high school.  I'd like to travel to Europe, but haven't seriously thought of when or how.

Underwater Hockey

The most interesting thing about me is probably that I play underwater hockey! It's a fast paced underwater sport played on the bottom of the pool with strategy similar to soccer.  It's the first thing I did in college that was out of my comfort zone, this style of class may be the second.  Our equipment looks a little funny, but the team at UF is great!
