Experiences
Beyond my professional life, I've been privileged to engage in a variety of experiences that have contributed to my personal growth. Explore what has kept me busy outside the office!
BTN Big 10K Race
Runner
I started running in 2025, and to celebrate graduating from UW–Madison, I took on the BTN Big 10K in Chicago with my mom (a fellow Badger) and my brother. Running my first official race surrounded by thousands of Big 10 fans and my family made it the perfect way to kick off this new chapter of life and honor my alma mater. Go Badgers!
MKT Honorary Marketing Society
Executive Board Member
As Vice President of Merchandising for MKT, I led a team of six in managing the Wisconsin School of Business store, promoting pop-up shops and online sales. By streamlining operations and creating targeted promotions, we've increased sales and student engagement across undergraduate and MBA networks. This role was an incredible opportunity to apply business skills in a hands-on environment.

Wisconsin Club Softball
Athlete
Softball has been a passion of mine since I was 6. I've played competitively every summer leading into college, and now I am playing at the collegiate level. In my first season, I was the National Player of the Week, leading the conference in home runs, batting average, and stolen bases. My last season I was on the Division 1 team, playing both short stop and second base.
Cheesehead Wrestling Tournament
Volunteer
Since 2012 I have volunteered at this elite high school wrestling tournament at my dad's alma mater. I have progressed from concession staff to towel tapper, videographer, clock worker and eventually a scorer. I even had my first finals matches in 2025, working alongside my dad, brother and other family members.
Wisconsin Pickleball Club
Athlete
While vacationing in Arizona, my family and I happened upon a local pickleball tournament. Intrigued, I returned to college and discovered our newly formed Pickleball Club. It was the perfect opportunity to immerse myself in the sport. Starting as a complete novice, I gradually developed a love for the game, honing my spins and serves over intense, weekly competitions.
Scuba Diving
PADI Openwater Certified
Signing up for a scuba diving class freshman year for the required credit turned out to be one of my best decisions. The magical feeling of the underwater world led me to not only complete the requirements for my Open Water Diver certificate but also ignite a passion for exploring marine life around the globe in the future. Can't wait to strap on the tanks and take the plunge in oceans worldwide!
Discover Whitewater Series
Volunteer
I had the opportunity to work alongside my best friend who was the race coordinator. Ensuring runners kept their spirits high at my water station during the 10K was both rewarding and thoroughly enjoyable. Also, lending a hand in the pre-event kids' race was a delightful addition to this thrilling experience. What better way to spend my Saturday?
Intramural Softball
First place!
As a freshman, I was fortunate to join a coed intramural slow-pitch softball team, composed of mostly senior players who once played collegiate baseball or softball. We went on to make an indelible mark, finishing undefeated within our league! This experience not only fortified my competitive spirit but also rekindled my love for the sport.
Marine Corps Ball
Bernard Olson Memorial Scholarship Recipient
I'm honored to be a recipient of the Bernard Olson Memorial Scholarship, a tribute to my late great uncle who actively contributed to the Mitchell Redcloud Jr. Detachment. Endorsed by my grandfather, this scholarship encompasses more than financial aid; it's a continuation of my family's legacy. As a scholarship holder, I had the privilege to attend the Marine Corps Birthday Ball, an experience I cherish.
