I was born and raised in the small town of Cottonwood, California. Before business school, I attended the United States Military Academy at West Point and later served as a U.S. Army engineer officer for eight years.

Since coming to Fuqua, what’s stood out most to me is the sense of community and teamwork. The “Team Fuqua” spirit reminds me of the camaraderie I experienced in the military; people here genuinely care about helping one another succeed.

My long-term goal is to build a career in sports or sport-adjacent industries, combining my leadership background and lifelong passion for athletics. Outside of class, you can usually find me cheering on Duke teams or spending time outdoors with friends.
