Growing up in a family of artists, I was always the black sheep, drawn not to brushes or canvases but to numbers and finance. At eight years old, when my mom did not have cash to pay the babysitter, she asked to borrow from my piggy bank. I agreed, but only if she paid me back an extra five dollars. I did not know what “interest” was at the time, but I understood leverage. From then on, my parents encouraged me to pursue this passion, and by thirteen I was serving on the Youth Advisory Board at the Young Americans Bank in Denver.

That interest carried me to the University of Southern Indiana, where I earned dual degrees in accounting and finance while competing as a collegiate basketball player. Playing at that level instilled in me grit, accountability, and the teamwork required to achieve ambitious goals—lessons that continue to guide how I approach challenges today.

After completing my Master of Accountancy at the University of Denver, I began my career at PwC, supporting clients in the asset management group as an audit senior associate. I later joined Chatham Financial, where I specialized in hedge accounting and helped clients structure derivatives to mitigate financial risk. These experiences built a strong foundation in technical rigor and client service, while also honing my ability to simplify complexity and deliver meaningful insight.

Today, as a member of the Finance and Operations team at Delta-v Capital, I am proud to contribute to a firm that partners with entrepreneurs and their companies at a pivotal stage of growth and is dedicated to building enduring relationships. What drew me to Delta-v was not only the caliber of the people, but also the culture of striving for excellence while staying grounded in integrity and collaboration. Daily, I am motivated by the opportunity to help our team unlock potential for our companies, our investors, and each other.

Outside of work, I am energized by travel and competition. I have been fortunate to visit more than 50 countries, with Vietnam and New Zealand standing out as favorites. Closer to home, you will often find me on the golf course, pickleball courts, or in the mountains where I continue to embrace the blend of strategy, focus, and camaraderie that first drew me to team sports.
