My Background

I am a Finance major at the University of Cincinnati with a minor in Economics. My academic work centers on financial modeling, investment analysis, and understanding how data can be used to guide stronger business decisions.

Outside of coursework, I actively build real-world experience through my businesses—Solid Comics, ACH DataWorks, and my ongoing development projects. Each of these ventures pushes me to learn more about financial strategy, operations, and the practical side of running a business.

What Drives Me

I’m motivated by building things, whether it be businesses, systems, tools, and solutions that actually make people’s work easier. I’ve always been hands-on, whether it was running my first business in middle school or developing analytics dashboards today.

I enjoy long-term thinking, strategic planning, and the challenge of taking an idea from concept to a fully functioning operation. My goal is always the same: find the most efficient, practical way to get something done—and do it at a high standard.

TJ Armstrong personal interests

Outside of Work

I like to stay balanced with a mix of hobbies that keep me informed, creative, and active. I spend a lot of time reading and following current events, especially anything tied to business, economics, or technology.

I also enjoy playing video games and watching movies and TV as a way to unwind and get inspired creatively. And when I’m not at my desk, I’m usually watching or coaching football — it’s a big part of my life and something I genuinely enjoy being involved in.
