I am a highly motivated and results-driven Corporate Development Analyst with a passion for finance, investment banking, and strategic growth. In my current role at DC BLOX, I contribute to capital raising efforts, financial modeling, and the execution of high-level strategic initiatives. My work includes preparing data-driven project materials, negotiating term sheets, and managing stakeholder communications—all in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.My diverse background has provided me with a solid foundation in finance and business operations. During my internship at the Arthur Blank Family Office, I worked on special accounting projects, gaining hands-on experience in financial modeling, analysis, and reporting, as well as deep insights into how high-net-worth family offices operate. As a Student Financial Analyst at Berry College, I built a strong understanding of financial statement analysis and budgeting. Additionally, serving as Director of Finance for the Student Government Association, I managed a $500,000 budget, where I demonstrated leadership in forecasting, financial reporting, and the strategic allocation of resources.Beyond finance, my legislative internship at the Georgia State Capitol allowed me to work directly with government officials, contributing to key initiatives and gaining a unique perspective on public policy. My time as a Legislative Aide sharpened my skills in policy research, drafting legislative summaries, and managing communications between state representatives and their constituents. This role taught me the value of diplomacy, strategic communication, and how government operations intertwine with business and finance.Additionally, my decade-long experience working in my family’s restaurant, The Pizza Farm, gave me practical business acumen from an early age. I’ve been involved in every aspect of running a successful restaurant—from customer service and staff management to overseeing daily operations. The restaurant’s success, built over 52 years, instilled in me the importance of resilience, adaptability, and a commitment to excellence in business.I am a quick learner, an adept problem solver, and a detail-oriented professional with a strong work ethic. I hold a bachelor's degree in finance, Accounting, and Economics from Berry College and am committed to excelling in my current role while preparing for future opportunities. My unique blend of finance, government, and business experience positions me to make a meaningful impact and thrive in dynamic, high-stakes environments.
