About Me

I'm a dedicated marketing strategist currently pursuing my education at Biola University while gaining hands-on experience in business development and retail operations. Through my involvement with DECA (2021-2025), I've specialized in building comprehensive company portfolios and conducting strategic analyses to help businesses identify growth opportunities and optimize their market presence.


My experience spans from front-line customer styling at EVEREVE, where I consistently worked toward $1,000 daily sales goals, to developing actionable business improvement strategies. I excel in time management, leadership, and creative problem-solving, bringing both analytical rigor and innovative thinking to every project.


My passion lies in understanding what makes businesses thrive and translating that insight into measurable results.
