About Me
​
I am a senior at Duke University majoring in Biomedical Engineering with a certificate in Innovation & Entrepreneurship. I grew up outside of Boston and recently moved to Raleigh. I have a passion for improving the lives of patients by creating innovative medical devices with a recent interest in the neuromodulation industry. Outside of my career aspirations, I love cooking, baking, running (after a career as a soccer goalkeeper), and spending time with my family and dog.​
