Story timeline

A clearer picture before the conversation.

The main pieces behind my direction: healthcare, school, hockey, practical operating work, and analytics.

01

Healthcare curiosity

My healthcare curiosity started in 2016, the summer before college, when my dad was diagnosed with brain cancer. Seeing care up close made me appreciate healthcare professionals and want to understand the systems around access, communication, staffing, reporting, and what patients and families go through.

02

Undergrad

I earned a BSBA from UConn's School of Business through the Healthcare Management and Insurance Studies program, with a Public Policy minor. It gave me a business foundation with healthcare context: care delivery, insurance, operations, policy, and how health systems are financed and run.

03

What hockey taught me

Hockey shaped how I work: show up consistently, listen before leading, take feedback, be accountable, and keep the room moving when pressure rises.

04

Small-business work along the way

Small-business projects have kept me close to real operating constraints: owner time, client experience, service delivery, local outreach, online booking, and reporting that actually gets used.

05

Master's

Completed an MBA in Business Analytics at UConn, conferred December 14, 2025, while playing professional ice hockey in Denmark and Belfast, Northern Ireland. I am now building toward roles where healthcare operations, people, and practical data use meet.
