Jentry Baker - VP IT/Operations

I am a junior majoring in Finance, Accounting, and Economics. My favorite hobbies include wakeboarding, Texas Hold 'Em, and investing. I have been investing for almost two years and really enjoy it. I am from Frisco, Texas and graduated from Frisco High School. I wanted the IT/Operations position because I enjoy making websites here and there. In high school I took a web class and learned how to make websites. Since then I have found an occasional use for the skill. I thought the Finance Student Association could use a better website, and I hope you like the result.

Feel free to contact me with any questions about investing, the website, or the Finance Student Association!
