I hold a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from Lehigh University, where I commissioned as a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Officer through ROTC. I also earned an MS in Engineering Management. Throughout my military service, I led engineering infrastructure projects across the Pacific, Europe, and Afghanistan in support of NATO operations. My work included contributing to hurricane relief efforts, building hospital facilities during the pandemic, and establishing refugee camps in Kosovo following the 2021 Taliban offensive. During my last two years stationed in Germany, I was also actively involved in semi-professional soccer. I’m thrilled to be back in the New York Tri-State area, which I proudly call home, as I complete my final year of MBA studies at the Yale School of Management.
