I am a driven and accomplished young professional currently pursuing a Master of Science in Finance at the University of Notre Dame Mendoza College of Business (Class of 2025). I hold a Bachelor's degree in Economics with a minor in Philosophy of Law from Hofstra University. Initially on a path to law school, my early career involved legal assistance and legal writing, where I honed my research and analytical skills. After graduating, I gained diverse experience in compliance and financial technology, further developing my abilities in client relations, data analysis, and regulatory compliance. As a former NCAA Division I scholar-athlete and team captain for 2 years, I cultivated strong leadership, teamwork, discipline, and problem-solving skills. My pivot to the financial sector reflects my passion for data-driven decision-making and strategic problem-solving. I am excited to leverage my expertise and dedication in a future role within the financial sector, focusing on quantitative finance, investment management, risk management or portfolio analysis.
