About Me
McCombs School of Business · The University of Texas at Austin
Hello! I’m Elijah Bonilla, a second-year Business major at the McCombs School of Business at UT Austin, where I’m pursuing my passion for accounting and leadership. I take pride in combining focus, creativity, and teamwork to make the most of my academic and extracurricular experiences. When I’m not studying, I love going on runs around Lady Bird Lake, discovering new coffee shops, and spending time with friends to recharge. As a member of Omega Delta Phi, Subiendo, and the UT Rangers, I’ve learned the value of service, mentorship, and strong community. My time at UT has taught me the importance of balancing ambition with curiosity while staying grounded in kindness and integrity. To me, being a Longhorn means leading with purpose, lifting others up, and striving to make a difference every day. 🤘

Fitness & Self-Improvement Motivation
I love watching videos that inspire me to grow in every area of life whether that’s staying active, improving my mindset, or learning from athletes who push themselves to the limit. These videos remind me that success comes from effort, discipline, and passion for what you do. Whether it’s a story about hard work on the field or someone striving to be their best self, each one motivates me to stay consistent, challenge myself, and keep chasing progress every day.
