I'm an Investment Researcher at LAUNCH, the venture capital firm founded by angel investor Jason Calacanis, an early backer of companies like Uber and Robinhood. In this role I research early-stage startups, markets, and emerging technology trends to support the firm's investment decisions. My work draws directly on the valuation, market analysis, and financial modeling skills I built at ASU, and it puts me where I most want to be: helping identify and back the next generation of high-growth companies, especially those building with AI.

As NIL Coordinator at the Sun Angel Collective, I ran core financial operations for a multi-party payment ecosystem connecting donors, the collective, and student-athletes. I tracked transactions, performed reconciliations, and supported auditing processes to keep every payment accurate and compliant. I also managed and analyzed a base of more than 8,000 donors, using the data to spot contribution trends, support revenue stability, and shape retention strategy. The work gave me hands-on experience with capital flows and portfolio-level analysis that translates directly to investor relations and fund operations.

As Lead Intern, I led execution of Devil's Halo, a revenue-generating partnership for the collective. I conducted the market and competitive analysis behind the launch, contributed to pricing strategy, and supported go-to-market decisions. The environment operated like a startup: small team, fast timelines, and ownership of both the analysis and the execution.

Supported daily operations, including practice logistics, game preparation, and player transportation. Assisted the coaching staff with player development and video analysis, while gaining leadership and teamwork skills under the guidance of Hall of Fame Coach Bobby Hurley.

During my time with Nike, I effectively communicated product features and benefits, provided personalized assistance to customers, and contributed to achieving sales targets while maintaining a high standard of customer service.
