About

Currently, a Senior Manager at PwC in the Risk Assurance practice.

I'm always looking to connect with new people. Send me an email or LinkedIn message, and I would be happy to meet for mutually enriching conversations.

My top 5 strengths (from StrengthsFinder) are:

1. Restorative: Exceptional at figuring out what is wrong and resolving it. Driven to make things better tomorrow than they were today.

2. Learner: Great desire to learn and want to continuously improve.

3. Arranger: Good at figuring out how all the pieces and resources can be arranged for maximum productivity.

4. Relator: Adept at identifying the basic components of a complicated situation, so that it can be easily shared and understood. Finds deep satisfaction in working hard with friends to achieve a goal.

5. Ideation: Deeply fascinated by ideas. Able to find connections between seemingly dissimilar phenomena.
