Hometown: New York City, NY

Hi everyone! I am currently a BBA Sophomore pursuing a Concentration in Finance along with a dual-degree in Philosophy, Politics, & Economics (PPE) through the College for Literature, Science, and the Arts. As a NYC native, I'm a huge NY sports fan. While I am a bit far from home, the U-M and Ross community have made Ann Arbor my home away from home, and I feel honored to be part of that community every day.

After finishing my freshman year at Ross, I am still in disbelief over how much I was able to learn and develop in my first year of college. Much of the credit for the experiences and knowledge that I have acquired goes to the numerous opportunities, events, and people that I have come into contact with thus far. These experiences include going to speaker events with notable business leaders at Robertson Auditorium, conferences at Tauber Colloquium, and challenges like the Sanger Leadership Center's Crisis Challenge. Through my participation in them, Ross truly allowed me to discover and understand my professional interests. However, Ross' greatest resource is its people. Whether it's professors, faculty, or my peers, I always feel inspired and motivated by every conversation I have.

As I combine my professional interests with my personal interests, I now find myself involved in a number of unique organizations that offer me valuable experience and practice in the field. I am interested in finance and the intersection between business and public policy and the role it plays in social impact, and each of my activities have helped me learn more about this. I now find myself pitching stocks, conducting market research, consulting for local businesses, and more, simply through the opportunities that Ross offers. I am extremely proud to be a Ross student and excited for the next few years here.
