About

Thanks for checking out my page! I am a Financial Institution Specialist at the FDIC, monitoring the safety and soundness of our financial institutions. As an examiner, I work to ensure that risks to banks and savings institutions are effectively identified, measured, monitored, and controlled by senior management. I hold a BBA in Economics from Temple University's Fox School of Business, with a minor in Statistics and Data Science. During my studies, I balanced internships, job opportunities, and student leadership within professional organizations. Prior to my current role, I consulted for Paramount Management Group (PMG), a national leader in ATM management, services, and solutions. By conducting an econometric study, I investigated how changes in surcharge prices at PMG ATMs influenced the demand for surcharge transactions. I also interned with the Bureau of Labor Statistics as a data analyst. I have nothing but thanks to the professors, managers, coworkers, and peers that played a part in my career development.
