I am from Seattle, WA and graduated from the University of Puget Sound with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration. I began my career as a business analyst for the Boeing Company in international and government programs. I then worked in business development, operations, and strategy in Los Angeles and Seattle with start-ups in fashion, production, and education.

I am currently pursuing my master's degree in Public Administration at New York University, with a specialization in International Management & Policy. My professional and research interests include cross-sector collaboration and public private partnerships; media and public policy; education; and local economic development.

Love for all things travel, design, innovation, policy, and business.
