I am a peak millennial who grew up on the lakes of Minnesota, hailing from the Twin Cities area. After 9/11, I felt a sense of duty to serve my country and attended West Point to become an Army officer. I spent nine years on active duty serving all over the world prior to Fuqua.

While I will always cherish my time in service, I chose to pivot career paths to pursue entrepreneurship through acquisition in 2021. I attended both Fuqua and the Sanford School of Public Policy as an MBA/MPP dual degree candidate, graduating in 2024. I studied business and policy with an eye toward exploring the drivers of future American prosperity.
