I am inspired by teams where the collective is greater than the sum of its parts.

The idea of creating groups that elevate their members is what led me to study economics, public policy, NATO, and sports analytics.

  1. Economics is the study of trade-offs that illuminates the consequences of decisions.

  2. Effective public policy lifts communities via their citizens’ productivity and quality of life.

  3. NATO elevates the collective security for its member states, partners, and democracy around the world.

  4. Sports bring people from all walks of life together for a common goal and elevate regional pride for communities across all socioeconomic categories.

Over the course of my life, multiple people and institutions have poured into me to nurture and develop my talents.

Others’ efforts to improve my life inspire me to use my skillsets to help the people, communities, and institutions around me realize and maximize their full potential.
