My life changed in an instant after an intensive spinal surgery in high school sidelined me from my life. One moment I was doing the things I love...chasing my goals as a student-athlete, track & field sprinter, and competitive studio dancer. The next moment, I'm fighting hard for my next big goal...just to walk again. Fighting through the highs and lows as a surgery patient was a really formative experience that spurred my career interest in the health and wellness space. I got back to living my life and pursuing my dreams because of medical device innovations championed by love and compassion from wonderful people in healthcare. In my career, it’s my mission to work towards advocating for products I believe in and empowering others to live healthy lives.This leads me to where I am now: I graduated from the University of San Diego with a degree in marketing, and I am currently attending University of Southern California (USC) to further specialize and explore optionality with my career.If you'd like to get in touch, shoot me a message! I am happy to speak about my involvements and look forward to the opportunity to connect with others on here.
