I am an MBA Candidate at London Business School. Prior to it, I was the Merchandising Lead at Macy's Inc and Gap Inc., where I spent 6 years developing and implementing assortment strategies in collaboration with several stakeholders to drive multi-million dollar businesses. After a life-changing health diagnosis and treatment in 2017, I decided to get an MBA to pivot to a career in healthcare to expand access to more people using technology. I spent 6 months working in the Digital Transformation Team at the NHS, spearheading several projects to optimize the UK health system. Right after, I joined Sensopore as the CEO & Co-founder, defining the strategy alongside two colleagues to bring our innovative cancer detection device to market. Outside of work, you’ll find me dancing to beats of music from all around the world (Salsa, Bollywood, Hip Hop, etc.), advocating for equity and social justice (Women in Business Conference Lead and Laidlaw Scholar), and traveling to places near and far in search of adventures!
