About Me

I'm an MBA candidate at Rollins College's Crummer Graduate School of Business and a collegiate basketball player. The demands of competing in college athletics while pursuing my education have shaped how I approach challenges, respond to feedback, and work with others.

I'm naturally curious, enjoy learning from different perspectives, and want to build a career where I can solve meaningful business problems alongside motivated people.

My Story

Basketball has been a constant throughout my college experience, taking me from TCU to Rollins College and introducing me to different teammates, coaches, and environments.

Alongside athletics, I've pursued opportunities to explore different areas of business, from technology strategy and legal compliance to consulting and international research. Each experience has given me a different perspective on how businesses operate and how people work together.
