    Background

    I am a graduate of the University of Michigan with a degree in Sport Management and a Minor in Entrepreneurship. Through both academic and hands-on experiences, I have built a strong foundation in administrative support, operational coordination, and customer service. I’ve managed digital platforms and streamlined communications as the Webmaster for the Maize Rage Student Section, supported large-scale student housing operations as a Community Center Assistant, and collaborated on event planning and facility logistics during my internship at Legacy Center Sports Complex. My leadership as an Eagle Scout also highlights my ability to lead teams and execute detailed projects. I am eager to apply my organizational and operational strengths to a wide range of professional environments.
