About Me
I have a Bachelors in Science and Business Administration (BSBA) with a degree in sports business from the University of Colorado in Denver. I also attended Arizona State University for my first two years of college.
I am a Denver, CO native, but am willing to relocate.
I have multiple business experiences, including having had the opportunity to study abroad in London, UK with my school to learn about international sports and entertainment.
"Curious, adaptable, and always ready for the next play."

A path shaped by curiosity, sport, and strategy.
