Bio

I am graduate of Fordham University with a bachelors degree in Economics and Theology. Additionally, I am an incoming MBA candidate at the University of Washington, Foster School of Business class of 2026. My academic passions lies between the intersections of Economics, Statistics, Ethics and Psychology. My personal interest reside in the business side of sports, media and entertainment; as well as industrial/organizational psychology. My hobbies outside of work and school include exercise, running, boxing, reading and trying to make the perfect pancake. I also enjoy writing about sports as I work part-time for a small newspaper in Harlem, New York focused as a staff writer. A fun fact about me is that I am the only left-handed member in my immediate family. I was always scolded as a child at the dinner table for eating with the "wrong hand."
