More About Me
I’m currently a fifth year college student at James Madison University with a passion for understanding how things work, particularly in the realms of analytics and logistics. My dream is to land a role in a government agency—one of those exciting three-letter organizations—where I can dive deep into data, solve problems, and make an impact. Beyond academics and career aspirations, I’m someone who thrives on balance. I love spending time with family and friends, whether it's enjoying a home-cooked meal I prepared or catching a game. I also enjoy journaling; it helps me reflect and stay grounded, while cooking and sports are my favorite outlets for creativity and staying active. I’m driven by curiosity and a love for discovering the inner workings of the world around me. Whether through numbers, patterns, or processes, I’m eager to apply my skills in meaningful ways as I transition into the professional world.
