Hello! I am a Business Honors student at Miami University’s Farmer School of Business pursuing dual degrees in Marketing and Entrepreneurship alongside a minor in Digital Marketing. I will graduate with my Bachelor of Science in Business in May 2026. Through my involvement in Alpha Kappa Psi professional business fraternity and East Bridge Consultancy, I have developed a passion for utilizing creative problem-solving techniques to tackle complex business challenges and drive corporate innovation.I have had the privilege of working on numerous consulting projects and case competitions for notable organizations, strengthening my ability to analyze data, think critically, and communicate novel business recommendations through storytelling. During the FC Cincinnati Client Challenge, my team and I developed a predictive model by analyzing player performance statistics and stadium environment through SQL queries. Our metric predicted a 1,500-fan increase in average game attendance, catching the attention of FC Cincinnati executives and earning us 2nd among 150 competing teams. Since then, I have worked on numerous consulting projects as a member of East Bridge Consultancy, ranging from non-profit organizations such as 1N5, to technology startups such as the AI-powered platform ESG Flo.As an Entrepreneurship co-major, I continue to foster innovation by practicing creative problem-solving techniques and design-thinking skills. Through hands-on classes, I have had the opportunity to work on multiple corporate innovation projects for companies such as 5/3 Bank and Total Quality Logistics. Additionally, I worked with a team to compete in Techstars Startup Weekend this past semester, where we had 48 hours to build a company from the ground up and pitch it to investors. Through prototyping an AI-powered calendar software, our team placed 1st among 24 competing teams and earned $2,000 in funding.This upcoming summer, I have the privilege of working in Cincinnati, Ohio as a Consulting Intern at 84.51°. When I'm not in class or working, I am always searching for new project opportunities to grow my skillsets and experience.
