My ancestors came to Michigan with nothing but hope and a dream. Today, I am living the American dream by attending the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business. I am originally from New York but have gotten to bounce around the United States. For my undergraduate studies, I studied Biology with an emphasis on its global health impact at Georgetown University while completing my pre-medical requisites. By the beginning of my senior year, I realized that I wanted to be behind the scenes and make an impact on healthcare from a business perspective. I pursued an opportunity within the advisory division of a healthcare conglomerate in Minnesota. I spent six years traveling the United States, working on projects that ensured hospitals and medical groups maintained financial health through performance improvement initiatives. I decided to attend Ross to establish a solid foundation in my business education and sharpen my analytical skills, to transition to investment banking or corporate finance. 

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and friends, trying new foods, playing golf, reading the newest Michael Lewis book, and taking car rides to the Culver's in Ann Arbor for some ice cream. I grew up as a Michigan Wolverines fan, thanks to my mother, so you can see me locked in every Saturday cheering on the Blue and Maize.
