I graduated from the University of Michigan and Pennsylvania State University with my BBA and MBA, respectively. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from both universities. I am also a member of the international business honors society, Beta Gamma Sigma. I started my full-time career in automotive at Ford Motor Company as a Buyer and then worked in Apple's Procurement department as both an Analyst and Global Supply Manager. Most recently, I've taken on a Strategic Sourcing Role at Waabi, a company that is paving the way in AI and autonomous driving. I have 4 years of experience in various areas of procurement and have expertise in both direct and indirect. I have worked on new technologies and components ranging from cameras and radars to mechanicals and instrument panels. I also have experience working on marketing, SaaS, facilities, R&D, and IT contracts.
