I grew up in suburban Philadelphia and earned my undergraduate degree at Penn State where I studied Supply Chain & Information Systems. After graduation, I returned to Philadelphia where I spent my early career at two different consulting firms. I have experience working with companies’ global trade, logistics, and sourcing & procurement functions, and I am excited to enhance my overall supply chain expertise in the MIT SCM program. Outside of school and work, my main hobby is distance running as I have run a full marathon, and multiple half marathons and 10-mile races in the past. This is my first time living outside of Pennsylvania, so I am eager to explore the Boston/Cambridge area, and make the most of my 10 months at MIT.
