career

Sales & Administration
In my current role as Front Desk Associate at the Nashville Entrepreneur Center, I am responsible for new coworking member recruitment as well as a variety of day-to-day administrative duties. Since taking on these responsibilities, I have converted most of my informational tour attendees to official members, using my knowledge of our company to provide enthusiastic tours tailored to each person that comes through our door. I have also developed a comprehensive set of documents and processes to help general business operations run smoothly, including scheduling, incoming payments, and recruitment.

Community-Oriented
As a member of both the Shoemaker Scholars and the Collegiate Entrepreneurs Organization, building and contributing to an entrepreneurial community is incredibly important to me. I am actively networking with IU and Bloomington service providers to get student entrepreneurs the support they need.

Project Management
Entrepreneurship
As a student in Dr. Regan Stevenson’s Spine Sweat course (Spring 2021), I started my own venture: Momentus. That semester, I researched my industry, interviewed customers, and developed a tech product to help families share and preserve memories. The course culminated in a pitch to venture capitalists and industry experts, who awarded me an A in the course, as well as Best Presentation.

Leadership
Throughout high school and college, I have built experience in leading a team. As a high school senior, I was co-producer of a 92-minute short film, which involved extensive coordination as we guided 40+ students through the filmmaking process. As a freshman at IU, I led a team of 4 to 1st place in the 2019 KISI Case Competition, which awarded us the opportunity to work with Habitat for Humanity of Monroe County to provide sustainable, low-cost housing to families in need.

Versatile
It’s easier to ask me what I’m not interested in than what I am. Throughout college, I have explored fields as far ranging as business and biology, acting and informatics, backpacking and music theory. I pride myself on being a fast learner, and I love the chance to develop new skills. Often, I find that these vastly different fields are more interconnected than I originally thought.

Mission-Driven
At the very core of my entrepreneurial drive is mission. To me, business is all about making the world a better place. My personal mission is to use social entrepreneurship to “democratize” entrepreneurship, creating a reality where truly anyone and everyone can have the chance to act on their entrepreneurial dream.
