Bio
Major: Business

Matthew Hager is a Business major with a minor in Coaching who says the people at Union are what make the college experience special. The relationships and support he's found on campus have helped shape his time here.
His dream job is to become a head marketing expert for a major company, combining strategy and creativity to lead brand success. His favorite subject in high school was English, and in his free time, he enjoys weightlifting and playing video games.
