    About me

    image

    I like the challenge of bringing together ideas from different places and turning them into something tangible. That could be a new recipe, an outdoor adventure, or a software application. Since I was a kid, I've always loved the process of creating a vision, getting others involved, and making things happen. While at Northeastern, I was fortunate to have an environment where I could explore new projects with other passionate people.

    I am inspired by people who love to learn and are innovative and mindful in how they live their life.
