Bio

My journey led me through five countries, each move instilling in me a deeper appreciation for diverse cultures and perspectives. These global experiences cultivated my passion for making a meaningful impact in industries close to my heart: sports, diversity, equity, and inclusion, and community development. At Penn State, I embarked on a rigorous five-year accounting program, simultaneously pursuing both a bachelor's and master's degree. Balancing intensive coursework with preparation for the CPA exam and an internship, I embraced every challenge as an opportunity to grow. I am driven by the belief that boldness is not just about achievements but about embodying qualities like determination and resilience. As I continue my journey, I am committed to leveraging my accounting expertise to make a positive difference in the world, bridging my passion for global experiences with a desire to contribute meaningfully to industries that matter
