I am a graduate of UC Berkeley, where I was awarded a full scholarship from the U.S. Navy. In May 2012, I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Economy and earned my commission to the Navy.

I earned my Surface Warfare Officer (SWO) and Engineering Officer of the Watch (EOOW) qualifications during my first sea tour aboard USS ARLEIGH BURKE (DDG 51). For my second sea tour, I performed Assistant Operations Officer duties as an Amphibious Squadron's N3A.

After honorably completing my naval service, I was fortunate to intimate myself with the private sector through a role at a tech start-up and a role in principal-level development.

I'm currently pursuing a career in law while working in the Professional Development Department at a Big Law firm and attending part-time law school.

In my free time, I am a foodie, a runner, a baker, and a disciple of yoga.
