Thanks for stopping by my portfolio! I'm here to give you a genuine sense of who I am, both professionally, and personally.

Currently a senior at Stevens Institute of Technology, graduating this May, I am passionate about pursuing a career in Baseball Operations. Throughout this site, you'll find projects I've worked on, my professional journey, certifications, skills, and contact information, along with some thoughts and reactions to to topics in the baseball world.

My path is unique as I started as a pitcher at Division III SUNY New Paltz, but after my sophomore year, I made the difficult decision to step away from playing. It's hard to let go of something that's been the center of your life, but I knew something was off. What I also knew was that I wasn't ready to leave baseball behind. I simply needed to find my place in the sport in a new way.

That's when I transferred to Stevens Institute of Technology to pursue more technical skills and, more importantly, to join the baseball analytics team. That same summer, I got my first shot in professional sports, working for both the New York Mets and New York Islanders. Being 19 and balancing my time with two professional sports organizations in New York was absolutely surreal. It was certainly difficult, but it was also a great learning experience in time management and organization.

Working with the Stevens baseball analytics team is really where things clicked for me. I realized I'd been given something extraordinarily uncommon. I've experienced baseball from three distinct perspectives: as a player, as an analyst, and as a coach. That unique vantage point taught me something crucial: how to translate the same information across different audiences. Whether I'm explaining something technical to fellow analysts or breaking down strategy for players, I've learned to meet people where they are. A lot of that came from being at Stevens and working with people who pushed me to communicate better.

I'm genuinely excited about what's next as I keep learning, growing, and building my skillset as I pursue a career in Baseball Operations.  I'm also grateful for the mentors I've had along the way. They've shaped how I think about baseball, myself, skillsets and about work itself.

I hope this site gives you a real sense of who I am. Please feel free to reach out!
