About
I am a first-generation college student at the University of Missouri–Kansas City pursuing a Bachelor of Business Administration with a dual emphasis in Finance and Marketing and a minor in Psychology, graduating in May 2027.
Beyond the classroom, I serve as President of Sigma Alpha Epsilon, where I lead chapter operations, coordinate events, and foster member engagement—strengthening my leadership, communication, and organizational skills. I also work as a Peer Academic Leader and as a Student Employee in UMKC’s Office of Student Involvement, experiences that have allowed me to mentor peers, support campus programming, and build strong teamwork and problem-solving abilities.
I previously gained industry experience as a Quality Engineering Intern at Toyoda Gosei, where I developed hands-on skills in quality assurance, process improvement, and cross-functional collaboration in a global manufacturing environment.
I am passionate about applying financial analysis, marketing strategy, and consumer behavior insights to real-world challenges. I am seeking internships and opportunities that will allow me to combine my analytical mindset, leadership experience, and creative problem-solving skills to make an impact in business.
