BOON, LLC
Internship

Inventory Management,
Marketing & Analytics

At Boon, an all-female consulting firm serving CPG brands, I launched the company’s first internship program in 2025. I analyzed sales data to support client strategy, co-led the development and launch of a new inventory management software for startups, and created an internship playbook to guide future interns.

Essentials of Finance
Wharton global program

The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania

I was selected to attend this competitive pre-college program where I explored finance fundamentals – the time value of money, capital markets, and risk and return – through dynamic hands-on projects and faculty-led sessions. The session wrapped with a group stock pitch where we analyzed real-world investments.

Through this experience, I learned how core economic principles underpin financial decision making, from understanding market dynamics, to valuing assets, and to devising real-world investment strategies.

learning abroad:
argentina & SPAIN

In July 2025, I embarked upon an immersive, three-week culinary arts and Spanish language experience. By honoring local customs and sourcing regional ingredients from local business owners, I learned to prepare authentic cuisine. I collaborated with my cooking partner to ultimately win the Master Chef competition with our creative and inspiring menu.

I also encourage fellow Phillips Academy Andover students to “go global” and expand their academic and cultural horizons. As a Learning In The World Ambassador/Spanish Language Leader, I speak at school informational sessions and support students seeking study abroad experience.

Through both of these experiences, I gained Spanish fluency through interaction with local businesses and my host communities.
