About Me
- me
- Upon completing my MBA in Fall 2008, I sought a greater work/life balance when looking forward at this career crossroads. I decided to leave NYC to learn Spanish and travel through Central America to fuel my passion for the unknown and discover ways in which I may enhance my quality of life upon return home. My background lies in Marketing Strategy and Media Sales. I hold an MBA from Fordham University (NYC) and a BA in Linguistics from McGill University (Montreal, Canada).
