About

Born and raised in north Kansas City, my first foray into business was mowing lawns in high school so I didn't have to get a real job. I went to college at Notre Dame - applying only because we have some Irish in our family. While there I studied finance and psychology and ran a business selling pizza bagels. After galivanting through Europe and seeing the world while studying abroad, I graduated and ended up moving back to KC about three blocks from where I grew up. I joined Lockton's newly formed M&A team, providing due diligence on employee benefit and retirement programs for private equity clients. After 6+ years building that practice and gaining a mastery of the M&A space, I realized it was time for a new challenge and joined the Virtus team. I'm sure there's more and I'm anything but shy, so feel free to ask me anything!

Whats the best life lesson you've learned?

You can learn anything from the internet. The only real limitations anymore are the passion and drive to do what you want. People ask me all the time how I know how to do things like fix cars or renovate my house, and I tell them there's a 10-minute YouTube video for everything. If at first you don't succeed, Google it!

How do you like to spend your free time?

When it's a rainy day or I need to recharge, it's a lot of naps, playing video games, and getting sucked into Wikipedia rabbit holes. When I'm energized, lately it's been home renovation projects and venturing around town with my girlfriend, Grace, and my husky, Winnie.

Favorite Food?

Ramen! Specifically from a shop in town called Columbus Park Ramen that unfortunately closed down during in 2020 and hasn't reopened. I haven't been able to find a suitable replacement yet so I'm always on the look out for new spots.
