About Benjamin Matsumoto

I am currently a senior marketing major at The College of New Jersey, with a 3.6 Cumulative GPA and Dean\'s List recognition. I bring hands-on experience in customer-facing roles—from bartending in high-pressure environments to managing operations at a sports facility. I’ve learned how to lead with empathy, solve problems on the fly, and deliver meaningful value to clients and teams. I\'m passionate about real estate, financial analysis, and entrepreneurship. As a former Real Estate Club executive board member and case competition semifinalist, I’ve built financial models, analyzed market data, and presented investment strategies to industry professionals. I’ve also held leadership roles in campus organizations, including Phi Alpha Delta and the Financial Management Association, where I helped raise over annually for St. Baldricks\'s Foundation and expanded student engagement.
