About Me

Home Town
    I am originally from a small town in central New Jersey and recently graduated with a degree in Finance, Entrepreneurship, and International Studies from the Carroll School of Management at Boston College. My home town, although smaller than the undergraduate student population at Boston College, has definitely helped in forming my most cherished values and perspectives. After all, I think it is important to remember where you came from when you look to where you are going.

Passion
    I am an extremely driven individual who is eager to ask questions, take on challenging opportunities, and learn as much as possible.
    I enjoyed getting involved on BC's campus, hosting events for the organizations I was a part of, and meeting new and interesting people along the way. I appreciate diverse teams and perspectives and served as a President of the BC AHANA Management Academy. I was also a Student Director of the Ambassador Program for the Winston Center for Leadership and Ethics after being involved with the center for four years. The summer after my junior year I moved out to Mountain View to work at Google as an International Product Marketing intern (BOLD Program) on the Google for Education Team.  This certainly served to solidify my interest in the tech industry.  Now, I am excited to be starting full time work as a part of HubSpot's Leadership Rotational Program. 
    I also love traveling, and in May of 2013 I participated in an amazing and unique field study course to Accra, Ghana. I studied technology and its effect on economic development in emerging markets, specifically in Africa. This was an experience that heightened my interest in technology and the impact that it can have in truly changing the lives of both individuals and entire communities.  While at BC I was also able to study abroad in Dublin where part of my family is originally from.

“To get the full value of joy you must have someone to divide it with.”
    Most importantly, I have my amazing family, friends, and mentors to thank for helping me to cultivate integrity, a hard work ethic, open mindedness, and an adaptability that will take me further in my career than any one business class possibly could.
    One of my friends at BC completed a study for his senior thesis detailing the positive effects that gratitude can have on mitigating stress and improving self love and happiness. What he found was a very strong correlation - and I certainly cannot disagree. Thank you to all of those who have positively influenced my life, I am truly grateful and I cannot wait to see what the future holds.
