About me: Originally from New Jersey, I graduated from the University of Michigan with a bachelors degree in Organisational Studies. I started my professional career at Citi, where I worked in HR before transitioning to the IB Management team.
After a few years in New York, I realised it was time for something new, which is why I applied to LBS. I wanted to open myself up to new opportunities and meet people I wouldn’t have crossed paths with otherwise. Career-wise, I’m exploring the worlds of venture capital and consulting, especially in areas related to luxury and travel—these are industries that have always fascinated me.
Outside of the classroom, I’m part of the Women in Business and Retail, Luxury and Consumer clubs. I love exploring new places, going to concerts, trying local workout classes and indulging in the London food scene!
Three topics I can be approached for: Women in Business; moving from the US to the UK; human capital.
