I’m from Topeka, Kansas. I graduated from Kansas State University in 2022 with a degree in Finance. After college, I worked in factoring sales at Shamrock Trading Company in Overland Park, Kansas. I began law school in August of 2023 and am currently a second year law student. Outside of school, I enjoy lifting weights, reading U.S. and Roman history books, playing Catan and chess, and working on my crappy golf game.
