Background

About Ned Smith

I am a Business Analytics Major at a small liberal arts university called Bucknell located in Lewisburg, PA. During last spring semester, I studied abroad in Australia and Singapore. In Australia I took classes at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) and spent a lot of time exploring as much of Australia as I could. I worked Singapore as an industrial engineering intern for United Parcel Service (UPS). I had the privilege of working with industry-leading professionals to help optimize complex processes and systems to improve efficiency and productivity. Over the summer of 2023 I spent 8 weeks in Ireland as part of the Bucknell in Dublin Summer Internship Program. The company I was working for is called 4Property.com and it was truly a learning experience for me. As a data analyst I fore fronted a data merger between Coldwell Banker Ireland and the CEO of 4property’s estate agency called Casey Kennedy Estate Agents. I also designed and outlined a 6-week social media and email re-marking campaign called ‘Building Blitz ‘23’ for Mellon Educate, an Irish non-for profit organization. Doing this kind of work for an upcoming startup software company has placed me in a position to fully understand the reality of the global housing market as well as the ins and outs of how Irish housing operates within their parliamentary government system.
