Before business school I worked as a marketing engineer at Texas Instruments (yes, the calculator company) in a role that was a liaison between our sellers in the field and engineers at corporate. It was a great job but I knew I wanted to learn more about business through an MBA. I quickly realized telling my story and background was tricky for a business setting because of how “non traditional” it was. Thus began my hate-affair with the phrase “non traditional”. I loved my time in business school and the opportunities it opened up for me. Helping people pursue a similar experience is a passion of mine and I love translating their story into a business setting. After graduating HBS, I received a full-time offer from my internship in Strategy and Operations at Google. During my time at Google, I have helped Google Cloud scale with the growing industry. I have also worked part time in our internal incubator, Area120, on an AI-integrated home fitness platform startup where I was the second business hire. It has been great to be able to get the large company as well as the startup experience while working at the same place. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and dogs, scuba diving, teaching fitness classes, and watching college football. ***Heads up!*** I will be taking maternity leave starting late November so I won’t be accepting round 2 MBA admission clients this year.
