About

As a dedicated economics major at the University of Colorado Boulder, I applied my academic knowledge to real-world sales scenarios. In the summer of 2024, I excelled at Lockton in developing valuation projects for customers. My two summers with Vivint sharpened my sales acumen, culminating in a leadership role in 2023 where I spearheaded a team in Dallas/ Fort Worth, achieving top sales figures for the state of Texas and nationally. I completed a semester abroad in Capetown, South Africa and Milan, Italy-- including volunteering at townships like Khayelitsha. I am passionate about blending data-driven economic insights with practical sales strategies. I am considering roles in sales, strategic planning, financial services, insurance or investment banking. My goal is to levverage my academic knowledge, hands-on experience and sales prowess. I welcome the opportunity to network with professionals and explore potential collaborations.
