Could you walk me through your career path, starting with your experiences in college? Please include any internships or jobs you had before your current role.
I started my career path at Sacramento City College. There, I played football and earned my AA in economics.
After about two years, I transferred to USD. I felt it was a great opportunity with amazing programs and many chances to network.
I was able to get advice from industry professionals, which I took advantage of. This networking led to an internship with Beats.
I interned there the summer before my senior year, working in business analytics and brand strategy. This year, I finished my degree in business analytics and was blessed with a role at SAP.
