Where did you grow up?
I grew up outside of Philadelphia, PA. I have one younger brother and two younger sisters, so I spent a lot of time with my siblings growing up. My love for reading began in childhood, as I would read 5-10 books per week in elementary school. I played both volleyball and softball regularly growing up. I also have great memories from going to my grandparent’s house in Ocean City, New Jersey during the summer.
How did you decide on attending Notre Dame? How did you decide your major?
I was attracted to the combination of great academics and a fun sports atmosphere. I also loved the residential life system, in which you live in the same residence hall community for four years.
I majored in Chemistry, intending to do medical research or something more science-heavy. I discovered an interest in healthcare, and really enjoyed learning more about the intersection of business, healthcare, and medicine.
What was your recruiting process like?
I was an experienced hire – I came from another firm. So I had a different experience than on campus recruiting. I brought what I learned at my first job but I have been able to grow immensely through the work I have done at Pathstone. Being in consulting, I anticipated the high workload, fast paced environment, and quick learning. I could not have predicted how much I have grown both personally and professionally in my time at Pathstone. The combination of the small firm and supportive environment have allowed me to come into my own as a person and as a consultant.
What are your favorite types of books? Where is your favorite place to read?
My favorite books to read are historical fiction. I absolutely love to learn, so I am always excited to read books that allow me to learn more about a time, place, or person in history.
My favorite place to read is on the porch on a Sunday morning.
What was your favorite memory from this summer in Chicago?
My favorite memory from this summer in Chicago was going on a paddle boat ride around the Chicago River. The boat traveled around the Loop up and down the river. I loved seeing the great views of the city and taking in the Chicago architecture.
