My path to Ross started in New York, where I worked in asset management law supporting private equity firms. I loved the pace of dealmaking and became fascinated by how capital can be used not just to grow companies but also to create lasting impact. That curiosity has taken me far from Manhattan — from helping build agricultural technology in Botswana and advising on coffee business practices in Colombia with MIT’s Development Lab to researching U.S.–China trade policy in Beijing and studying community health in India.

Across these experiences, I’ve seen how business, policy, and innovation come together to shape markets and lives around the world. At Ross, I’m part of the Entrepreneurship & Venture Capital Club and the International Investment Fund, where I am exploring how capital can scale innovation while driving growth. I am pursuing a dual degree in both law and business to understand both the legal and strategic sides of investment, and to learn how to build firms that empower entrepreneurs and communities.

I love cooking elaborate breakfasts, playing tennis, practicing yoga, volunteering in my community, traveling with friends and family, exploring museums, and watercolor painting. And, of course, I never miss a Michigan football game. Go Blue!
