I graduated from DePaul with a major in Organizational Communications in 2019, with a minor in Hospitality Leadership. I started working at GrubHub in sales right after graduation and was the top performer in my sales region for three months which led to a promotion to Corporate and Enterprise sales in 2020. This past June I also completed my Master`s program at DePaul with a degree in Hospitality Leadership with a concentration in Revenue Management. I fill my free time volunteering as a Board member for Meals on Wheels, playing golf, and traveling when I can.
