I graduated from Tufts University with a B.S. in Data Science and a minor in Finance, and have been diving deeper into the evolving world of AI ever since.

I'm especially interested in how data, business, and tech come together. I really enjoy being in the middle of it all, helping to connect the dots.

When I’m not working, I’m likely cooking something new, strength training, walking way too far, or singing and dancing. I’m always curious, always learning, and always up for a good conversation about where tech is headed.
