About

I am currently a junior in the Tippie College of Business at the University of Iowa studying Finance and Accounting with a certificate in Sustainability. I am a member of Alpha Kappa Psi, a professional business fraternity on campus, through which I've developed professional skills and networked throughout the business college. I am highly focused on my academics and made the Dean's list after my first, second, and third semesters at the university. Also, I was inducted into Tippie Business Honor Society for attaining a GPA in the top 10% of all Tippie students. I am eager to expand my professional network and form more connections in the business community. Feel free to contact me via LinkedIn or directly at [email protected].
