Hello, my name is Kevin T. Prince Jr. I am a sophomore, finance major from Norfolk, Virginia but I currently live in Pg County, Maryland. I have one half-brother but I am basically the only child.

Overall, I want to make a positive influence the world, whether it is through my future company, my relationships with others, or just being a nice person.
