I'm an operations and administrative professional with hands-on experience across regulated and fast-paced professional environments. At Avid Bioservices, I manage compliance-driven warehouse operations — from inventory controls and supply chain coordination to quality-overseen finished product handling and regulated shipments.

Previously at DaVita Healthcare, I coordinated complex administrative operations across 20+ locations, managing scheduling, equipment logistics, and order processing in a high-stakes setting.

Academically, I'm a Dean's List Honors student at Irvine Valley College, transferring to UC Riverside for Fall 2026. I was also selected for UCI's Future Leaders Initiative at the Paul Merage School of Business.

Outside of work and school, I co-founded BAR — an automotive startup — where I lead all operations, client communication, and business execution.
