ABOUT ME
At 22 years of age, I am currently a senior at the University of Delaware with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing and a Minor in International Business. I am originally from Massachusetts and am looking to go into a career in software sales in the Boston area following college. I have strived throughout college to improve my personal skills by associating with several organizations and taking on leadership roles in all of them. It is through these organizations and my academics that I now look to the professional world to gain real-world knowledge in the sales field. When I am not busy with school I seek to maintain a social life while regularly playing sports on campus.

UDance 2017
March 2017
The summer of my senior year of high school my dad took me to Alaska as a graduation present. It was a trip where I learned a lot about myself and my father as he lived there when he was younger. It was a "coming of age" trip where we fished, hiked, climbed, and traveled all over Alaska for 10 days.
For my Sophomore year spring break in college I traveled to New Orleans along with about 40 others from my University for a disaster relief trip. Our primary goal was to deconstruct homes that were affected by Hurricane Katrina near the Lower Ninth Ward. It was a trip that allowed me to me some remarkable people and exposed me to extreme cultural differences in an area that had seen much despair.
UDance is the largest student-run philanthropy event at the University of Delaware the culminates in a 12-hour dance marathon every march. UDance raises awareness and money in the support of childhood cancer. I had the distinct pleasure of being a chapter representative for my fraternity in 2015, being a social media manager in 2016, and a corporate sponsorship chair this year. UDance is something that I have developed a passion for and has allowed me to give my time and effort to a great cause.
