About

Second-year MBA at Yale SOM. Before school I spent five years building products for hospital billing and patient payments, which taught me that most of healthcare's cost problems are operations problems in disguise. At SOM I interview applicants for the Admissions Office, co-lead the Healthcare Club's case competition, and TA Operations Engine. Joining a strategy consulting firm's healthcare practice in Boston after graduation.

Ask me about: New Haven pizza rankings, the International Experience trip to Brazil, and why every product manager should take Operations Engine.
