In both the board room and the boxing ring, I have been a powerful voice for my clients. I have delivered quality work in corporate strategy, artificial intelligence, and risk management projects during my 5 years in consulting and corporate finance.

While earning my degree in finance at the University of Notre Dame, I also discovered two great passions of mine. I began to play rugby, the sport that I enjoy the most and one in which I was proud to represent the Fighting Irish for 4 years as a D1 athlete. I also discovered my natural talent as a ring announcer for combat sports when I volunteered to announce for Notre Dame's annual Bengal Bouts charity boxing tournament.

My passion for skilled volunteering did not end there. During my time as a consultant at Protiviti, I began doing free strategy consulting work for local nonprofits in Minnesota through an organization called Compass Pro Bono.

When I learned that I had a talent for organizational strategy, I decided to pursue it further by getting an MBA from the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business.

Ross has been an incredible experience. I had the amazing opportunity to conduct my capstone “MAP” project for Amazon with a talented group of my fellow students. Together we interviewed and surveyed stakeholders from across a number of higher education institutions. To get to the root of their issues with the process of using digital signage on University campuses. To solve these issues, we designed an agentic AI interface that allowed users to create, schedule, and deploy digital signs around campus from a single chat interface.

This process of turning constraints into capabilities served me well during my summer working for the Private Equity Performance Improvement group of Alvarez and Marsal. I helped build capabilities that informed the go-to-market strategy for a SaaS platform that combined many disparate applications and services into a single custom software suite.
