About

Outside of Ursinus, I work for my family business called Margaritas-2U. We rent out
frozen drink machines to caterers, office buildings, music festivals, weddings, house
parties, etc. My job is to drop off the machine at the event, set it up, show the customer
how to work it, then pick it up a day or two later. We also have to clean the machines
after use so they can be rented back out to another customer.

Life After Ursinus

Upon graduating, I plan on owning my own business.

Fun Fact

In high school I was a 4 year varsity wrestler and soccer player.
