“Learn fast, live fully and keep things fun.”

I was drawn to TEE after meeting the team at the Cal Poly career fair, where I immediately felt that this company was different. From great conversations at the booth to dinner later that night, it was clear that TEE truly operates like a family. That genuine connection and team culture made a lasting impression on me and confirmed that this was a place where I wanted to grow my career.

I’ve worked as a whitewater rafting guide, ski instructor, and leatherworking instructor at Cal Poly’s craft center, which has helped me build strong communication and leadership skills.

I hope to backpack through Patagonia and explore the Amazon Rainforest. I love traveling to Central and South America to practice my Spanish.

My friends would describe me as zany, and I try to bring that same energy, creativity, and enthusiasm into everything I do.
