Fun Fact

I was awarded grants to conduct my own original research throughout high school, and was given the opportunity to present my findings at the AT&T Global Communications Center in New Jersey during my sophomore year.

Passion

I love working in fast paced, challenging, and team oriented environments where I can contribute to something bigger than myself. I'm interested in the fields of finance and marketing, and am passionate about several humanitarian and animal focused volunteer and fundraising organizations.
