About Me

I'm a first-year International Business student with a passion for building bridges between cultures and driving entrepreneurial ventures. My focus is on South American markets, where I leverage my fluency in Portuguese and growing Spanish skills to understand the nuances that make or break cross-cultural partnerships.

Beyond business, I'm driven by performance, precision, and excellence whether that's in the boardroom, at the gym, or behind the wheel. I believe the same principles that make a finely-tuned M3 perform at its peak apply to building successful international ventures: attention to detail, understanding mechanics, and never settling for average.
