I am a builder at heart—a trait I’ve carried since childhood when my uncle, an architecture student, ensured that every gift I ever received was a set of Legos. Today, I’ve traded building blocks for business growth as an Account Executive at AFN. I am driven by the process of helping companies scale and thrive, bringing a high-energy, “can-do” attitude to both my professional life and my personal adventures. Whether I’m navigating the complexities of a financial deal or a steep mountain trail, I’m focused on reaching the best possible outcome.
Time in Industry:

Brooklyn, NY
My professional expertise is centered on assisting businesses in securing the vital capital they need for ongoing operations and long-term expansion. I specialize in providing hands-on guidance throughout the entire funding lifecycle, ensuring that the process is as efficient as it is effective. I pride myself on my ability to demystify the financing world, offering clear solutions that empower business owners to make informed decisions for their company’s future.
In my current role at AFN, I act as a strategic partner for businesses seeking financial stability. My path to finance was paved by my previous career in marketing, where I mastered the art of high-level communication and project management. This background means I am well-versed in the nuances of “circling back” and “touching base,” ensuring no detail is overlooked. This unique combination of marketing strategy and financial advocacy allows me to communicate complex concepts clearly while keeping client goals at the forefront.
I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology, which provides me with a unique lens through which I view the business world. My academic background has been instrumental in honing my ability to understand people, manage professional relationships, and navigate the emotional and psychological stakes involved in business growth and decision-making.
When I’m not in the office, you’ll find me outdoors or on the move. I am an active traveler and a dedicated runner—even if the running is mostly me pretending to enjoy cardio. I’ve always been drawn to a physical challenge, whether it’s hitting the gym, playing basketball, or showing off my more “unexpected” skill: pole vaulting. My favorite adventures, however, are the ones shared with my husky and sidekick, LJ. Whether we’re exploring new hiking trails or soaking up nature, she’s my constant travel buddy (even if her gym form could use a little work).
