About Andersen Mercalde

I am a Finance student at Florida Atlantic University pursuing a Bachelor of Business Administration with focus areas in finance, real estate, and business administration. I am motivated by building real, income producing skills early and understanding how businesses grow through both numbers and people.Through my experience in sales-driven and operational roles, I have worked directly with POS systems, membership sales, sales pipeline tracking, Microsoft Office, and daily workflow management. These roles have shown me how revenue is generated, how client relationships are built, and how organized systems directly impact performance. My academic background in finance, combined with hands-on sales and client interaction, has helped me develop both analytical thinking and the confidence to operate in high volume, results focused environments.In high school, I founded a community service initiative that organized and distributed donated gift cards to families in need, and I served as a four-year varsity cheerleader and senior captain. At FAU, I continue to grow through Alpha Delta Pi and Cru while actively seeking opportunities in sales, business development, finance, and real estate where I can contribute value, strengthen my financial skill set, and build a long-term career centered around growth, impact, and strong client relationships.
