About

I am a rising senior at UC Santa Barbara, studying History, Accounting, and Strategic Investments. I concurrently sell LIfe Insurance, and have an interest in go-to-market, early stage marketing & sales for early stage founders. In my free time, I practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and am on the Board of the UCSB Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu team.
