Biography

Biography

I grew up in Virginia Beach, appreciating the ocean at the edge of my hometown. Currently at Vanderbilt’s Owen Graduate School of Management, I’m concentrating in strategy and human & organizational performance, as well as serving as student body president. Over the summer, I interned in the HR leadership program at Bank of America in Charlotte. I’m very excited to pursue a people-oriented career with an emphasis on innovation.

After studying marketing and human resources at Virginia Commonwealth University, I worked in talent acquisition for five years at Dominion Energy, a Fortune 500 company. During that time, I created and executed company-wide projects and strategic recruitment plans. I bring key strengths of creative problem solving, project management, and data-driven decision making to my work.
