Background
Professional Foundation
From the Ground Up:
Service, Sales & Systems (2003–2012)
I spent the better part of a decade in restaurants doing the real, unpredictable work of running a business—managing rush‑hour table turns, balancing customer needs, and adapting on the fly. These early roles weren’t glamorous, but they taught me what truly keeps a business—especially a small one—alive: clear communication, operational grit, and resilient culture. I learned to read people, prioritize under pressure, and deliver results when it mattered most.
Key Takeaways:
-
Built frontline communication and situational judgment
-
Developed a results‑driven work ethic and empathy for owners & managers
-
Learned to streamline process, prioritize goals, and manage others
Business Experience

From the field to the financials: Real-world execution and strategic insight.
(2011-2025)
​
From roofing projects to route management to commercial property valuation, I’ve worked across multiple industries that depend on execution, not fluff. These roles gave me a firsthand understanding of how decisions, communication, and operations impact the bottom line—and the people doing the work.

Education
2020-2024
University of Colorado Denver
BSBA in Financial Management
I went back to school to deepen my understanding of how money molds decisions made in business. In May of 2024, I earned a BSBA in Financial Management, graduating Summa Cum Laude with a 4.0 GPA. While theory formed the core, what mattered most were the real‑world applications—judging risk, optimizing structure, and modeling pathways for growth.
