I am delighted to announce the successful completion of the Tuck Business Bridge Program.

This transformative experience has significantly enhanced my undergraduate education, exposing me to a diverse array of courses, including Venture Capital, Business Law, Corporate Finance, Strategy, Spreadsheet Modeling, and Financial Accounting.

A standout moment was collaborating with my exceptional group—Lucy Ferry, Michael Lukasevicz, and Noah Beecher—on our company valuation project.

Together, we delved into DCF analysis, financial modeling, and forecasting for YETI Inc.

In a special honor, I was nominated and elected as the class speaker for our winter Tuck Business Bridge Program at Dartmouth cohort. It was a privilege to deliver closing remarks on behalf of our class, celebrating our successful day and presenting our Capstone Project to Tuck Alumni, faculty, administration, and familial guests.

For those considering the Tuck Business Bridge Program, I wholeheartedly recommend this opportunity to expand your business acumen. This invaluable journey has set the foundation for my future endeavors, and I am eager to continue building upon the skills and knowledge gained.

Thank you Tuck Bridge faculty, administration, and community for all of your support! Special thanks to our Bridge Fellow Dillon Smith!
