Neuroscience & Business · Vanderbilt University
Exploring where science, business, and technology meet.
I'm a neuroscience student with a minor in business, interested in how research becomes companies, products, and better care.
About
I've always wanted to know how things work. In neuroscience, that means how the brain turns signals into action. In business, it means how a discovery becomes a company. In Army ROTC, it means how a team holds together under pressure.
That curiosity shows up everywhere. I've helped shape strategy for my dad's custom furniture business in Indiana, built early health tech concepts from customer interviews, and spent weekends making split-second calls as a lacrosse official. Each one taught me something the classroom couldn't.
Right now, I'm focused on where science meets business, and I'm always glad to connect with people building in that space.
This summer I spent a month backpacking solo through Europe by train, from Amsterdam to Geneva. A few favorite moments along the way:
Amsterdam · Berlin · Salzburg · Interlaken · Florence · Cinque Terre · Genoa · Portofino · Nice · Antibes · Lake Como · Chamonix · Geneva
