As Chief Client Officer of Tribe Innovation, I lead efforts to expand our consulting program by fostering strong relationships with clients and managing project teams. My role involves overseeing client engagements from start to finish, ensuring effective communication between teams and clients, and driving tangible results. I produce comprehensive synthesis documents that have led to impactful changes for student organizations and faculty across campus. Through initiatives like our “Design Thinking” workshops, I work to empower both our team and the broader W&M community to implement creative, actionable solutions.

I worked as a host for the resort's pool restaurant and bar, where I honed my ability to manage guest experiences in a fast-paced, luxury setting. I took on the challenge of coordinating reservations and optimizing seating, which helped streamline operations and improve the overall guest flow. Working closely with servers and management, I developed strong communication and problem-solving skills, learning how to adapt quickly to changing needs and ensure top-notch service. This role gave me valuable insight into client-focused solutions and operational efficiency.

I gained hands-on experience in various areas of finance and tax. My responsibilities included assisting with the preparation of financial statements and reports, helping with the preparation of tax returns, and working on special projects. I also had the opportunity to attend meetings and presentations to learn about the finance and tax industry. Through this internship, I developed strong analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as proficiency in finance and tax software. In addition, I honed my ability to work independently and in a team environment, and improved my communication and interpersonal skills.
