About

Hi, I’m Ethan.

I’m a student at Michigan State University studying finance, accounting, and computer science, based in Naperville, Illinois. I also have experience working on the marketing side of a luxury vehicle rental company, where I create short-form content for TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.

That experience sparked my interest in the intersection of business, technology, and creativity. This site is a place to share my work, experiences, and the things I’m interested in as I continue learning and developing my skills.
