About
I think in systems.
I work with people.
I'm a Management Information Systems student at the University of Montana College of Business, with an Accounting double major in progress. I'm drawn to the overlap between how organizations work and how technology can make them work better.
This summer I'm joining Artemis Connection as a Strategic Consulting Fellow, working on real client projects across communications, data analysis, and professional consulting frameworks. I'm also the Outreach Coordinator for MISA and a Sales & Management Intern at The Buckle.
Outside of work: I'm ranked #24 in Montana chess (USCF 1605), I spend time in the gym, and I'm genuinely excited about where AI is taking business. I also do occasional work with Rocky Mountain Agency.
