Originally from Prince George's County, Maryland, I am a proud graduate of The Ohio State University, where I studied Operations Management and fell in love with the Midwest’s communal spirit and Big Ten traditions. That experience ultimately led me to pursue my MBA at the University of Michigan Ross.

Before Ross, I worked in Federal Human Capital Consulting at Accenture Federal Services, supporting a client within the Intelligence Community. This summer, I’m working at Discover Financial Services on the Personal Loans team, where I focus on product strategy—analyzing the competitive landscape, partnering with marketing and analytics teams, and helping shape the direction of our product positioning.

My time at Ross has pushed me to grow both personally and professionally. I’ve developed deep relationships with my classmates, leaned into Ross traditions, and taken full advantage of the resources available to accelerate my career. I’m also proud to serve as a Consortium Liaison, supporting prospective students as they explore what Ross has to offer.
