I moved to Columbus, Indiana when I was 2 years old and lived there until after I graduated from Columbus North High School with honors May 2014. I began working at Texas Roadhouse in 2013 and continued to work there and live in Columbus over college breaks. I worked as a Host, Host Manager, and Server during my time at Texas Roadhouse and honed in great customer service and multi-tasking skills. I also worked as an Office Assistant around the same time at Children's Morning Out where I simplified data processes for the preschool.

I began taking classes in Bloomington, Indiana in the Fall of 2014. I graduated in December 2017 with a major in Marketing through the Kelley School of Business and minored in Spanish. I began my Master in Information Systems soon after and graduated in May 2019 with co-concentrations in Business Intelligence & Analytics and Enterprise Security. I am currently pursuing my Master in Business Administration and will graduate in May 2022.

In the summer of 2013, the summer before my senior year of high school, I studied abroad in Ciudad Real, Spain. I actively participated in classes about grammar, culture, and literature. I co-wrote, co-produced, and starred in a play written about my and my classmates' experiences living in Spain. However, I learned the most about the Spanish language and culture by assimilating into my host family's life. My 4-year-old sister and 7-year-old-brother taught me more grammar and cultural lessons than any teacher could even begin to touch on. I continue to speak with my host family very often and utilize my Spanish-speaking ability as often as possible. I have visited my host family since and plan to visit again soon. I would love to add a feature to this website that allows for the pages to be translated to Spanish.

In the summer of 2017, I interned with a start-up beauty company called Zue Beauty. As a Marketing Intern, I translated and created content for Instagram, Facebook, and emails to find customers in the market. I aided the company in selling a 5-product sku in Whole Foods stores across the country by demonstrating the benefits and organic ingredients in each beauty product. While interning at Zue, my interest in combining Marketing with Information Technology to create websites to attract customers spiked as I watched developers behind-the-scenes. Utimately, this internship lead me to pursue my Master in Information Systems and become a developer.

I moved to Austin, Texas to begin my career at General Motors as a Software Developer in June of 2019. I began working on the Global Brand Sites team and have further worked on the Owner Center team. Through these two teams, I have advanced my skills in CSS, HTML, JavaScript, Java, Git, and Adobe Experience Manager through various bug fixes and user stories. Through the Brand Sites team, I discovered the importance of good coding practices such as Mobile-First Design; code optimization, organization, and consistency; and smoke and unit testing. While working with the Owner Center team, I explored the significance of accessbility for all users and the use of the Angular JS Framework and BootStrap. I strive to learn something new everyday through continuous educational courses, research, and advice from senior developers.
