- Chas EfhanChas Efhan is a 19-year-old liberal arts with a concentration in business major. As a native of Nuʻuanu, Efhan is in his sophomore year of college. He plans on transferring into UH Mānoa's accounting program next semester. "Today's world is so focused around markets, businesses, and money," Efhan said. "A lot of jobs are situated around businesses, and because of that I want to get a business degree. It's a really versatile degree that can land me a lot of different jobs. "Efhan's goal is to own his own business where he manufactures and builds his own products. He loves to repair surfboards and fix anything related to fiberglass. However, Efhan believes that he will start his post-college job at a business firm. "I think I'll start at a business firm after Mānoa to save and invest my money so that I can buy my own company someday," he said. "I want to build composites in the future; preferably stuff dealing with carbon-fiber, surfboards, or canoe making. Those would all be really cool. I want to create things that bring people happiness. "Efhan's advice to future business majors is to just love what you're doing. He said that you must be interested in the field as a whole, and be motivated to work hard. He believes it might take a while, but you'll get to your end goal eventually.
