I love to travel and play golf
Instead of looking at a traditional resume, I invite you to really get to know me beyond paper. You will find the same information here, plus the story of who I truly am.
I graduated from Southwestern University with a B.A. in Business, heavy on economics and data science, and graduated Paideia with Distinction. I’ve studied and worked in three countries, and I’m a former NCAA DIII student‑athlete. I love golf, learning from people, and building things that matter.
I love to learn and solve problems. I’m a self‑starter: whether it’s running tournaments, consulting, or growing a venture, I give 100% to every project and job I'm passionate about, and I like to dress the part and show up ready. I’m fluent in English and Spanish, and I care about the people around me, especially my family, and I love to give back.
Business with a focus on economics and data, plus a semester in London studying economics and psychology.
