About

Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneurship and Business Analytics at Indiana University Bloomington, I have a strong foundation in entrepreneurial studies, complemented by a study abroad experience at Copenhagen Business School. As the founder of Kollektive Studios, I lead the development of a digital platform aimed at enhancing collaboration among filmmakers, focusing on customer discovery and product enhancements. My entrepreneurial journey includes participation in Indiana University's Shoebox Incubation Program and the Spine Sweat Experience Accelerator, where I honed my skills in innovation and business pitching. Additionally, I am an active member of The Mill's Startup Summer Accelerator Program to further develop Kollektive. I also founded Meechio, a personal project to explore creative writing and coding. My experiences reflect a commitment to innovation and entrepreneurship, with a focus on creating impactful digital solutions.
