About Us
-Budget Buddy
-
- We're four computer science students from UMass Lowell. Our names are Daniel Quinonez, Jacob Veber, Gabe Herrera, and Chris Olaf.
- -- Using Budget Buddy, we are hoping to help young people take control of their finances. We know that it can be extremely - difficult to balance bills and other expenses at the same time as being a full-time student, so we want to make it as - easy as possible for students to quickly understand what their budget looks like. In addition, we want to help young people - make plans to pay off any loans they have needed to take out if, for example, they are a college student. This way, we hope that the - daunting task of managing debt while being a young adult with little or unstable income can be made easier. -
- -- By helping the young demographic manage their way through debt, we are aiming to help them gain financial independence as soon as - possible, so that they can live their lives post-graduation with the most opportunities. Also, and possibly most - importantly, we hope that by using Budget Buddy, students gain an idea of how to effectively balance their budget. - This way, they will be able to manage their money in a more effective way after they graduate and move into the professional - world. We want young people to have an idea of how budgeting can work for them when they begin to make more money in their - careers and begin to take on more debt in order to do things like buy a house. -
