About

I'm a student at Babson College — one of the world's top schools for entrepreneurship — building real-world experience at the intersection of startups, operations, and venture capital.

My path has been shaped by genuine curiosity: co-founding an apparel startup in 2021, analyzing pre-seed deals at a VC firm, scouting for GoAhead Ventures, and now running early operations and growth at an AI company.

I'm drawn to the early, messy, high-stakes moments of company building — where figuring things out matters more than having all the answers.
