As a driven strategy professional, I began my career in State and Local government, spending five years refining my skills in strategic planning, project management, and stakeholder engagement. During this time, I developed a passion for consulting-style problem-solving, working closely with elected officials to navigate complex challenges, each requiring tailored strategies to address diverse constituent needs. This experience provided a strong foundation in critical thinking, data-driven decision-making, and effectively aligning stakeholder priorities with long-term objectives.Eager to deepen my expertise, I pursued an MBA with a focus on Brand Management & Strategy at Simon Business School, where I have taken courses in Advertising Strategy, Competitive Strategy, Data Analytics, Digital Marketing Strategy, Game Theory for Managers, and Pricing Policies. Additionally, I was elected by my peers as VP of Academic Affairs for the Graduate Business Council, collaborating with Academic Advising and Experiential Learning teams to enhance the MBA curriculum for future classes. My transition from government to the corporate strategy world has been both challenging and rewarding, fueling my passion for developing impactful strategies that address complex challenges, resonate with diverse stakeholders, and deliver measurable outcomes.
