About Me
- The best thing about Ward and Smith is the culture. Not only are we working together to create great solutions for our clients, but we're also pushing each other to reach our full potential.
- One surprising thing people don't know about me is my deep passion for all things NC State. Nearly everyone in my family attended the university, so my love for the Wolfpack started at an early age. In fact, during my freshman year, I had the most family alumni connections in my entire class!
