Why did you choose Daniels

I was drawn to the emphasis on ethics and excellence at the Daniels College of Business. The class sizes and cohort model foster close relationships with my classmates and professors, and I was drawn to the opportunity to build a network in Denver.

Previous Education

BS in mechanical engineering, Colorado State University

Pre-Grad School Experience

After graduating from CSU, I moved to Madison, Wisconsin, where I worked at Epic Systems Corporation, managing internal teams and working with hospital leadership to support hospitals in optimizing their software. A year ago, I moved home to Colorado and pivoted into a consulting role with Epic for technical projects.

Post Grad School Goal

After graduation, I want to combine my technical background with the business knowledge I am building to lead teams in solving meaningful, challenging problems. I am excited to gain a broader understanding of industries that interest me through my MBA.

Hobbies

I love fly fishing in the Colorado mountains, finding fun adventures on a mountain bike, spending time outdoors with my family and traveling to new places!
