Born and raised in Fairbanks Alaska, I developed my interest in banking, technology, and data analysis while studying economics and computer science at the University of Vermont. I am passionate about financial services, and spent three years working as the Data and Business Analyst at Spirit of Alaska Federal Credit Union, where I spearheaded data governance and data analytics for the organization. I am currently in Rochester, NY pursuing my full-time MBA at the University of Rochester Simon Business School. I believe that business leaders should be quantitative and data driven, which makes Simon a fantastic fit for me.

I aspire to work on (or invent) products that increase financial accessibility and support participation in financial markets. I want to build financial infrastructure for small businesses, community banks, retail investors, startups… you get the idea. This summer, I took the next step in that direction by joining JPMorganChase as a member of their Focused Analytics Solutions Team in Delaware. Stay tuned.
