Notre Dame, Indiana, United States
As a student at the University of Notre Dame double majoring in Finance and Economics, with a minor in Business Analytics and Technology, I am an aspiring management consultant driven by a passion for solving complex global challenges through data-driven strategy and financial expertise. I am particularly interested in consulting solutions that address sustainability, climate change, migration, and geopolitical conflicts, leveraging financial and economic frameworks to create impactful, scalable change. My experiences in strategic problem-solving, financial modeling, and risk assessment have sharpened my ability to analyze complex data and develop actionable insights that drive decision-making. Through everything I have been involved in—academic projects, leadership roles, and professional experiences—I have developed strong collaborative, leadership, and analytical skills. My diverse background and global experiences have strengthened my ability to navigate cross-cultural business landscapes and approach challenges with a holistic, adaptable mindset. I am eager to continue expanding my expertise in consulting, with a focus on financial strategy, sustainable business practices, and economic development. Looking forward to connecting with professionals and peers who are passionate about leveraging consulting to drive meaningful global impact.
Excited to officially begin my summer internship at Bank al Etihad in Amman, Jordan. This summer, I’ll have the opportunity to rotate across the International Finance, Risk, and Treasury and Wealth departments, an experience I am truly grateful and excited for. As a Finance and Economics student at the University of Notre Dame, this internship perfectly aligns with my academic interests and long term goals in finance, strategy, and global markets. I’m especially looking forward to learning how financial institutions operate across different functions, gaining exposure to risk management and treasury operations, and understanding how banking decisions connect to economic trends, investment strategy, and international finance. Beyond the technical experience, I’m excited to learn from such a respected institution and from professionals whose work helps shape the banking and financial sector in Jordan and the region. I hope to continue developing both professionally and personally while contributing, learning, and building meaningful connections throughout the summer. Grateful for this opportunity and excited for what’s ahead.
Selected to work with the Climate Cares Centre at Imperial College London, supporting research at the intersection of climate change, mental health, and youth wellbeing. I will contribute to a multi-region project co-developing research with young people in Australia, the Philippines, and the Caribbean on their psychological experiences of the climate crisis. My role will include assisting with data collection and analysis, co-designing and piloting community-based mental health interventions, and helping translate research insights for public-facing communication and advocacy. This work connects climate science, psychology, and community engagement, with a focus on supporting youth resilience and agency in the face of ecological uncertainty. This internship also complements my Sustainability Research Fellowship with the Nanovic Institute (Notre Dame), where I will study how youth-led sustainability practices in London communities can reduce climate anxiety while strengthening long-term pro-environmental behavior. Together, these experiences inform my broader commitment to ethical, community-centered climate action rooted in dignity, solidarity, and the common good.
Grateful for the opportunity to study abroad in London this semester through the University of Notre Dame. Being immersed in one of the world’s leading financial and economic centers has allowed me to deepen my understanding of British and European markets and the institutional forces shaping global economic decision making. Through rigorous coursework and daily exposure to an international environment I am strengthening my global perspective while connecting my studies in finance and economics to real world systems. Thankful to Notre Dame for this experience and excited to continue learning and growing throughout the semester.
Selected as one of the Spring 2026 Sustainability Research Fellows to conduct independent, Europe-focused sustainability research while studying abroad in London. The fellowship supports undergraduate scholars investigating how communities are responding to climate and environmental challenges, in partnership with local universities, organizations, and stakeholders. My research examines the intersection of climate change, mental health, and community agency among young people in London. Working collaboratively with the Climate Cares Centre at Imperial College London, I will study how youth-led, locally grounded sustainability initiatives can reduce climate-related distress while strengthening long-term pro-environmental engagement. The project involves qualitative interviews, co-designed micro-interventions, and reflective analysis rooted in principles of dignity, solidarity, and the common good. Upon returning to campus, I will present my findings publicly and translate insights into actionable models that can support sustainability, community wellbeing, and youth empowerment efforts at Notre Dame and in South Bend.
