After college, I worked for several years as a management consultant, then took some time to travel and do freelance writing in South America, and then spent a year studying literature, with a focus on early 20th century European novels. Now, I am in business school at Wharton, where I'm pursuing a career around renewable energy businesses. There's no linear narrative that coherently explains all these things together - suffice it to say that I have been very fortunate to be able to pursue the things that I like doing, and meeting exceptional people at every turn.

I graduated in 2002 from Plan II at the University of Texas at Austin with a BA in Spanish Literature and a BS in Mathematics. I then spent the next two years teaching middle school and high school at small Catholic schools in Dallas and studying philosophy at the University of Dallas. Then, I attended Ave Maria University and graduated with an M.A. in Sacred Theology in 2006. Afterward, I again taught middle school and high school, but this time in rural Wisconsin. Currently, I am working on a Ph.D. in historical theology at Catholic University of America. I remember my time at the Presidential Scholars events in June 1998 very fondly.
