Could you walk me through your career path, starting with your experiences in college? What internships or jobs did you have before your current role?
In undergrad, I was at Cal Poly, going through the coursework. I did an internship in commercial real estate appraisal and also in financial advising at Modern.
After graduating in 2021, I took a bit of a gap and was trading, doing personal business work. Then I got a job at Paramount in commercial real estate and started my MBA.
Now, I'm still in commercial real estate and involved in a bit of venture capital.
