Curiosity has been my compass since childhood. Fascinated by the way technology reshapes everyday life, I chose computer science for my undergraduate studies and leaned into practice over theory. That mindset helped me win multiple coding contests and a campus hackathon, which led to my first industry break at JPMorgan Chase.

In parallel with my education, I co founded a clothing line with my mother. I combined creativity with execution by developing new concepts, streamlining operations, managing accounts, growing our client base, and overseeing on time delivery.

At JPMorgan Chase I built strengths in product management, automation, and data analytics. As an AVP, I led global transformation initiatives, created strategy frameworks, and partnered with cross functional teams to automate legacy processes that delivered millions in cost savings. The rapidly evolving tech industry presents a continuous stream of new challenges. The pace of change in technology demands leaders who blend technical depth with business judgment, which is why I chose to pursue my MBA at Ross.

At Ross, I was selected for the Ross Leaders Academy 2026 Cohort and I serve as an AVP in the General Management Club. I am passionate about technology and consulting, and I am confident that action based learning such as the Multidisciplinary Action Projects(MAP) will give me valuable hands on experience with real consulting challenges.

I love the outdoors, especially hiking, mountain biking, and scuba diving. I am always open to connecting with prospective Ross students and sharing the wide range of opportunities and career paths at the school. You will find a club for almost anything you can imagine, which makes this place special and brings the Ross community together. Go Blue!
