Here's a little about me.

Born in San Francisco California I enjoyed athletics and participated in several leadership activities as a youth. I moved on to receive my Bachelors in Economics from the University of California, San Diego where I competed as an NCAA athlete with the Men's Rowing team. A major highlight of my college years was the opportunity to spend a semester at the John Felice Rome Center in Roma, Italy.

Upon completing my Undergraduate degree in California I obtained my Masters in Accountancy from DePaul University. While attending DePaul I had the opportunity to work for the University as a Research Fellow for The Center for Strategy, Execution and Valuation I gained valuable business insight researching and evaluating high performance companies. The question we try to answer in the Center is "What are some of the key elements of business strategy that have made companies successful?" With DePaul I also instructed Lab classes in the topic of Financial Accounting.

My deep rooted passion for the sport of rowing has allowed me to get involved with the community at DePaul; I spend my mornings serving as the Head Coach for the DePaul Men's Crew Team. As the head coach I have worked with students who founded the rowing club to turn what was a recreational activity into a nationally recognized Varsity Club. Despite the lack of Division 1 funding DePaul University Rowing Club is able to compete against Division 1 schools and has become a nationally recognized brand in the rowing community.
