As a Business Development Associate at ARS Investment Partners, my primary responsibilities involve supporting the firm's distribution efforts by acquiring, developing, and managing relationships with institutions. I am thrilled to be part of a team that is dedicated to excellence and continuous learning in the global economy and financial markets.

Before joining ARS Investment Partners, I worked at Clearnomics, a startup focused on providing market and economic insights for advisors. This experience honed my skills in market analysis and client relationship management, preparing me well for my current position.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts from Columbia University, where I also played Division 1 Basketball and served as Team Captain. Graduating in May 2022, my time at Columbia taught me the value of leadership, teamwork, and dedication—qualities that I bring to my professional life every day.

My motivation lies in knowing that I represent ARS Investment Partners. As perpetual students of the global economy and financial markets, I could not be more excited to be a part of this business. I genuinely enjoy waking up each day to do what I love, learning from my colleagues, and making an impact in any way I can.

Outside of work, I am a big fan of sports, particularly Boxing and MMA. In my free time, I enjoy working on my fitness, socializing with friends, and exploring new restaurants and activities in NYC. These interests help me maintain a balanced and fulfilling life, both personally and professionally.
