Hello

I grew up in Phoenix, Arizona. My sport of choice was springboard diving and I was very good. After graduating from college with a BA in Russian languages (and getting 5th Place in NCAA Springboard diving nationals) I worked as a summer camp counselor then translator & customer relationship manager at an accounting company in Russia. Aside from helping customers to navigate Russian bureaucracy, I also helped launch a new product line.

​

After living in Russia and getting my MBA, I moved to Silicon Valley where I helped to improve two new smart window technologies and a Silicon Valley tour package by adapting the product design and marketing strategy based on studying UX.

​

During the 2016 Election cycle I became fascinated by the "Scandinavian economic and democratic model," so I moved to Denmark to experience it first-hand. I was most impressed by how efficient and "high-tech" government services were. While learning about Scandinavian life, I worked for a VR/AR Production Studio where I helped modernize their operations by setting up QR code asset tracking software and a booking interface on their website. 

​

Since coming back to America I am dedicated to upgrading US government technology to restore American's faith and enjoyment in government interactions.
