I was born in Texas in 1992. I grew up around NASA Johnson Space Center and got to launch rockets with NASA scientist as part of a leadership development program through my school. Watching the amazing things humanity was able to accomplish in space had a big role on me entering the industry as an adult.
Growing up with a father who worked at NASA and was a Vice President at Lockheed Martin; and with a mother who managed multi-million dollar programs for the city also had a notable impact on my career trajectory early on.
After spending most of my childhood years in Texas, I moved right outside of New York City to attend High School. Once I visited Colorado during a University tour, there was no doubt on where I'd be spending my college years.
Ancient origins of my family can be traced back to Cyrus the Great, one of history's greatest leaders.
More recently, my family held notable positions across society; with many of them focused on having a positive impact.
