What I'm looking for

I seek roles in sports/brand marketing or product development where I can lead teams, apply digital strategy, and drive growth in a collaborative, performance-oriented culture.

I am a disciplined student-athlete and emerging sports marketing professional who balances high-level athletics with academic achievement and business experience. I have captained teams at multiple colleges and consistently demonstrated leadership, accountability, and resilience under pressure.

Professionally, I have delivered elevated hospitality service in luxury, high-volume settings and supported business development initiatives researching entrepreneurial strategies from Fortune 500 companies. I founded Quickbread, an esports and innovation startup, where I lead product vision, branding, and strategic direction.

I am passionate about the sports industry, athlete culture, and growing brands through innovation, teamwork, and relentless work ethic, and I seek opportunities to build and elevate teams while applying digital strategy and market research skills.
