About
I'm a finance graduate student at Fordham's Gabelli School with a background that spans investment analysis, external consulting, and operations leadership. Before Fordham, I spent a few years supervising a major campus recreation facility at Colorado State, managing teams of up to 25 people, overseeing day-to-day operations across ten departments, and handling everything from budgeting decisions to the occasional life-threatening emergencies. It taught me how to stay sharp when things move fast and the stakes are high.

On the consulting side, I worked with Chemonics International on integrating three acquired companies into a singular Chemonics Europe entity, covering synergy mapping, cost optimization, ERP scoping, and delivering recommendations directly to C-suite leadership.

At Fordham, I'm an analyst in a $1.1M student-managed equity fund where I've pitched long ideas that have outperformed our benchmark. My core skills cover corporate finance; valuation techniques such as DCF, FCFE, DDM, and comparable company analysis; and FP&A work like financial forecasting, variance analysis, scenario planning, and budgeting.

I'm drawn to work at the intersection of financial analysis and real operational impact.
