What I'm looking for

I seek an entry- to early-mid-level role where I can apply finance and operations skills, contribute to measurable growth, and continue developing leadership in a collaborative environment.

I am a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (Finance) student and Division I collegiate lacrosse athlete who combines financial analysis skills with proven leadership and client-facing experience. I founded and grew a private lacrosse training business, delivering measurable performance improvements, high client retention, and seasonal revenue while managing scheduling, payments, and program design.

I bring hands-on operations experience from fast-paced food service roles where I improved order flow and inventory control, plus coaching and mentorship background that drove team performance and athlete development. I am organized, results-oriented, and committed to leveraging analytical and interpersonal strengths to contribute to finance, operations, or client-focused roles.
