Born and raised in Alexandria, VA and further continuing my education by attending Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, VA. There I got my Bachelor of Science in Accounting and Information Systems and subsequently receiving my Masters in Accounting and Information Systems with a focus in Auditing. My career began as an auditor in public accounting working for national accounting firm CohnReznick. As my career progressed my industries of focus primarily related to technology, bio-pharmaceuticals and restaurant hospitality ranging from fine dining to fast casual brands like Matchbox Pizza, Ted’s Bulletin, The Palm Steakhouse, Jose Andres Group (formerly ThinkFoodGroup), &pizza and Cava. I then furthered my career and professional growth working in financial services and banking, financial accounting/reporting consultant and as the Controller for &pizza and The Mina Group prior to joining Alexandria Restaurant Partners. Growing up in a family that owned their own restaurant, I have a passion for the restaurant industry and understand all the hard work and determination that is needed to be successful in this industry and hope to help drive continued success to Alexandria Restaurant Partners.

Outside of work, I enjoy getting outdoors in all ways possible from traveling the world, hiking, playing pickleball, improving my golf game and enjoying all sports, especially baseball.
