In addition to finance, I am passionate about building brands that focus on creating long-term customer value. Have a penchant for survey design, possess a consumer-focused mindset, and love transforming insights into actionable business decisions. Market Research was one of my favorite business school classes and I leveraged the learnings and my physical therapy injuries (three reconstructive surgeries and an acute neck/back injury) by developing a physical therapy app that focused on injured athletes in the post-acute care segment.
