Summary

A student-athlete enrolled in the 3+2 program between Sacred Heart University and Columbia University, majoring in Math and Mechanical Engineering. Inspired by childhood exposure to Toy Story and Buzz Lightyear's motto "To Infinity and Beyond!", I have a strong passion for aerospace engineering and dream of contributing to space exploration through rocket design. Alongside academic pursuits, I compete at the NCAA Division 1 level in wrestling, aspiring to achieve national championship titles and Olympic success. Prior to college, I gained valuable experience as a sales associate at ASAP, where I utilized my interpersonal skills and chemistry knowledge to assist customers effectively and safely. With a desire to make a difference, whether through aerospace engineering, Olympic wrestling, or community service, I am dedicated to pursuing opportunities that align with my passions and goals.
