Bio:
I'm the type of person that loves challenges--be it climbing a mountain or playing a soccer match. I think pushing myself beyond the limits of mental constraints drives me to carry on day to day with humility and excellence. I've had a tremendous experience playing soccer for Butler University the past four years and am ready to dive into new experiences, making it a point to enjoy every moment and build lasting relationships along the way.

Why did you choose to be a part of the Orr Fellowship?
I was impressed by the character and ambition of all those involved with the Fellowship. It's a group of big-thinkers, high achievers, and accomplished young professionals ready to tackle challenges in their host companies and beyond.
What are your long-term career ambitions?
Love entrepreneurial ventures of all kinds. I can see myself eventually growing a business from the ground up with a team of A-players that share similar ambitions and passions. Needless to say, I'm ready and excited to allow all of the experiences between now and then shape my path.
Just the facts:
For me, there's nothing like the sound of a blue-ribbon trout stream and a four-count rhythm and the hope that a fish will rise (to steal a line from A River Runs Through It). I love to fly-fish. Take me outdoors--and I'm happy--be it backpacking, mountain biking, or snowshoeing. I pick up a new hobby every week; in my repertoire of useful skills right now are brewing beer, roasting coffee and climbing.
