Describe yourself in 15 words or less:

I’m a multi-hyphenate— a creative storyteller building my corporate career while fueling my passions in content creation.

What goals led you to pursue an M.S. Major in Management Online degree?

I wanted to expand my network with passionate individuals who value innovation and creation, and there’s truly no better place to do that than Georgia Tech.

Who most influenced your decision to pursue an M.S. Major in Management Online degree?

I knew I wanted to deepen my knowledge from an innovative technology standpoint. Joining the M.S. in Management Online program has allowed me to do exactly that while working full-time in technology consulting.

What has been your favorite business course so far?

I’ve enjoyed Professor Tim Halloran’s Marketing Management class. He encouraged us to think critically, expand our creativity, grow in our business acumen, and explore the real-life application of marketing principles.

What advice would you give to an incoming M.S. Major in Management Online student?

If you’re working alongside your degree, it’s important to balance your workload. Even though this is a master’s program, I’d encourage students to seek out internships and project opportunities to keep building their experience and résumé.

What is something unexpected you learned about Scheller College during your time as a student?

I’ve been surprised by how warm and encouraging the professors are. One of my favorite things about my classes is how applicable, autonomous, and innovative they’ve been.

What is your proudest accomplishment?

By 23, I’ve achieved many things I’m proud of, including publishing a book at 18, serving as COO of a nonprofit for five years, hosting a podcast, competing in and winning pageants, becoming a content creator focused on the 20s experience, graduating with a business degree from Georgia State University, landing a tech consulting job, and so much more.

What ties all these accomplishments together is my passion and drive to embrace every part of my creativity and work ethic, grounding it in courage. I’ve learned to give myself the freedom to fail, grow, and evolve—and that mindset continues to shape everything I do.
