In My Own Words

Recent CU Boulder graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Economics, with a passion for languages and business. I am incredibly coachable and independent when it comes to work load and ethic, with a vetted interest in the outdoor industry and other firms that work to reduce their environmental impact.

I've spent my last year working in the software industry, connecting businesses with valuable tools to help them grow and succeed in the national & global tourism industry.

Additionally, I am the co-founder of a website called The Goodland that showcases the experiences many people have in the outdoors. Online, we post stories and other contributions from myself and my fellow co-founders, along with other passionate followers.
