In true engineering fashion, I love tackling big problems with high-achieving teams who understand the balance of working hard and playing harder. I’ve enjoyed doing so in a variety of industries, including aerospace/defense, supply chain, and public health. Joining Ross made sense due to its rich community culture with global perspectives. This is a safe place to be challenged, strategically grow, and build lasting relationships.

As a self-proclaimed foodie who seeks a healthy lifestyle balance, my graduate education is rooted in improving food systems that preserve culture and provide a dignified lifestyle to all players—from farmers to consumers- through the lens of sustainable operations.

Ross has been the perfect backdrop to navigate my career switch and to support my personal and professional growth. They deliver in all industries, DEI, global engagement, and entrepreneurship, which were important values to me in my business school search. I’m excited to chat about all the robust opportunities on campus and the power of our strong alumni network!
