Notes:

Geography: Grew up in New York and am hoping to stay in New York post-MBA.

Education: Graduated with a double major from a top 20 undergrad.

Work Experience: I've worked at a couple different companies with all my roles centered around using data to solve problems. None of the companies that I've worked for are nationally recognized names, but are very well known within their specific industry. Opted for the IC path at my current company, so no team management experience outside of a college internship, where I managed a small team of 4.

EC/Volunteer: I play on multiple intramural teams for a sport that I got back into the last couple years that I used to play competitively in high school. I've been volunteering for the last 4 years at a non-profit theater, but again, without any leadership roles.

Goals: I'm currently exploring options related to pivoting into the entertainment industry
