I was born and raised in Chicago. In the 5th grade I moved to London for a year with family where I attended an international school. That experience was a defining moment in my life, showing me I could go anywhere in the world and remain true to myself. I would describe myself as somewhat of an introvert – not the most talkative person, but deeply interested in the stories of people I encounter. I consider myself an elite active listener, comfortable with silence. I avoid gossip, take confidentiality seriously, and am someone who values trust and would never break it.

In an office setting, you’ll find me to be a grounded employee who approaches tasks with vigor. I’m not concerned with recognition or awards; my focus is on being the best I can be every day.

I believe in treating people how I wish to be treated. I genuinely care about those around me and strive to make a positive impact on the lives of people I interact with, and hopefully, the world.
