What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and values analytical thinking.

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented professional currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and a Bachelor of Business Administration with a minor in Sport Management at Shenandoah University. My academic achievements, including graduating magna cum laude with a GPA of 3.825, reflect my commitment to excellence and my passion for learning.

In my current role as a Fraud Prevention Officer II at NASA Federal Credit Union, I leverage my programming skills to enhance software efficiency and analyze data to mitigate fraud. My internship with the Washington Capitals allowed me to apply my analytical skills in a real-world setting, where I authored arbitration briefs and conducted player performance analyses. I thrive in collaborative environments, as demonstrated by my experience working with local business leaders and peers from diverse backgrounds.

As a selected team leader for Shenandoah Baseball, I have honed my leadership and communication skills, ensuring that team needs are met while fostering a spirit of community service. I am eager to bring my analytical mindset and teamwork abilities to a dynamic organization that values innovation and growth.
