Summary

A highly motivated and disciplined individual, with a strong work ethic, and a passion for excellence.

Currently, I am a senior Criminal Justice major at McNeese State University (graduating Fall 2025) and pursuing an MBA in Spring 2026. I have built a solid academic foundation while balancing athletics and academics with discipline and leadership. Passionate about sports, event management, and community engagement, I thrive in fast-paced environments, excel in customer service, and am eager to contribute to the success of dynamic organizations and community events.
