BIOGRAPHY
EARLY LIFE & EDUCATION
Raised in small town in Virginia, she had big city dreams at an early age. She used this to drive her through the challenges of being a minority in the south as well balancing her love for education and sports. The former wrestler, cheerleader and track and field athlete graduated as her high school’s Salutatorian in 2015. She then went on to graduate from Duke University in 2019, obtaining her B.S. in Mechanical Engineering.
PIVOTAL CAREER MOVES
Immediately after graduating, she moved to Philly and transitioned into the finance sector working as an analyst for Chatham Financial, a risk advisory firm. She was ultimately affected by the pandemic layoffs in 2020 but leveraged her engineering and finance background to quickly be recruited by Quantile, a finance-based tech startup. She worked as a product manager doing interest-rate swap compression for the largest global investment banks until mid-2024.
LANDING IN BIG APPLE
She used this unexpected career pivot to move to Manhattan in 2021. Since then, her small tech company got acquired by the London Stock Exchange, transitioning from WeWork to Wall Street. She pursued modeling and within the year signed with Wilhelmina , one of the top modeling agencies in the world. She also found her purpose through mentorship and shares her story and experiences in schools and online and has been two-time first-runner up to Miss New York USA.
