Rochester, NY

Absolutely in love with the start-up world. Closet nerd; I speak computer. Taught myself: Code, Adobe Creative Suite, FTP clients, social media, blogging, digital marketing, deal-making and deal-breaking. Quickly discovered my love for Economics and Statistics, which has led me down the path of being scrappy and systematically analyzing almost everything. I live and breathe growth strategy. On the flip-side, I communicate well and was once told that I should be a lawyer. I love to learn by doing and experiencing; solving real-world problems is the best way to learn how to solve real-world problems. CrossFit athlete and coach. Ultimate foodie. Sunshine smells good.

My philosophy on life and career in a few sentences: Life is a jungle gym, not a ladder. Every opportunity is a chance to learn something incredible; embrace failure and use it to your advantage. Every day, strive to make a difference in the life of someone else. Ever better.
