I completed my undergraduate studies at Harvard (AB '09) and recently earned an MBA from the Yale School of Management ('15), but I'm a Bay Area native, born and raised. I am passionate about technology, business development, and investing and am currently working as an enterprise sales professional at Microsoft.
My primary areas
of interest are technology markets, business development and sales management of enterprise SaaS products, and venture capital investing. I have experience in technical financial analysis of technology companies and am building skills in data and statistical analysis, coding (currently learning HTML, CSS, JavaScript), agile software/application development, and technology marketing.
Prior to business school I developed a strong track record in sales and business development in financial services at Lateral Investment Management, a credit hedge fund, as well as at two solar energy companies, Sungevity and Quetsol. I've helped sales teams crush goals, closed make-or-break partnerships at startups, and worked with C-level executives of some of the most promising technology companies in Silicon Valley. I excel at integrating financial and strategic analysis with reading the markets, listening to customers, and proving value to close deals.
