My experience includes providing consulting services, corporate development, new venture launch & origination, advanced analytics and non-profit management.
I will be joining Bain & Company in their Chicago office. Prior to this, I worked for startup and growth companies to learn how these businesses succeeded. These endeavors include: (1) working with three MDs on a wearable device seed-funded largely through research grants; (2) providing targeted marketing for DataDog, a then Series-B funded server analytics company; (3) working on M&A and strategy for the largest renewable energy company and fastest growing US utility, NextEra Energy; (4) providing both sourcing, analysis and LP work for Alpha Venture Partners, a Pritzker Group-backed NYC venture fund; and (5) assisting a series-A trucking B2B company in developing their pricing strategy. Working with startups and growth companies inspires me.
Before graduate school I worked for Boston Pacific Company, an economic consultancy in DC focused on the energy and utility industry. There I helped the company expand significantly, pushed the company into burgeoning practice areas, provided key insights to our clients and developed key internal operational tools to solidify the business. I also launched the Foundation for the Advancement of Clean Energy Studies or FACES, a 501.c.3 devoted to broadening energy education while helping college campuses go green. I was involved in Greater DC Cares, a volunteering network, and the Young Professionals in Energy organization.
My goal is to create impactful solutions and make the world around me a better place. I am inspired by the confluence of technology, energy and social impact, and currently pursuing my MBA at Columbia Business School.
