I’m an MBA candidate at Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, where I serve as co-president of the Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition Club, vice president of alumni relations for the Black Business Student Association, and a CASE fellow at the Center for the Advancement of Social Entrepreneurship.

I have a background in both the financial and nonprofit sectors. I previously served as vice president of residential mortgage lending at Morgan Stanley. Before that, I was workforce development director at GRIP Outreach for Youth, a mentorship organization focused on investing holistically in the lives of Chicago youth. My work in that role earned me recognition as an Emerging Leader by the We Raise Foundation for my innovative approach to addressing poverty, violence and inequality.

I hold a bachelor’s degree in computer science from Howard University. In the summer of 2024, I completed an internship at Apis & Heritage Capital Partners, where I supported its mission of closing the racial wealth gap through the employee-led buyout model.
