Having spent 12 years immersed in the world of music, I grew up surrounded by all forms of art, which has shaped my creativity and open-mindedness. This artistic upbringing has instilled in me a deep appreciation for new experiences and a drive to grow in diverse spaces. It has also inspired me to explore my other passions—communications and marketing—where I can combine creativity with strategy. Professionally, my goal is to contribute to the entertainment and arts industries, working with a company that shares my passion for music and innovative expression.

I'm passionate about business and public policy. Through my internships on Capitol Hill, I've developed a deep understanding of legislation, and I would like to pursue opportunities to learn about policy implementation and the relationship between business and government. To accomplish this, I hope to live in D.C. after college. I strive to be a sponge and absorb new knowledge and skills every day. 

I am a junior at Tulane University pursuing a dual degree in Finance and International Relations with a minor in Spanish. I am studying abroad in Seville, Spain (Fall) and Madrid, Spain (Spring) for the 2024-2025 academic year.

I really enjoy discovering areas where IR and finance intersect, as I think both fields can be deeply integrated with one another.
