- What do you currently work, and where are you living?
I work for Intuitive as a Specialty Sales Manager in Hoboken, New Jersey, but plan to move back home to Monmouth County, New Jersey, for a new role in March with my wife Maggie Cosentino (also a GW alum 17', formerly Maggie Bryant).
At Intuitive I help sell and train surgeons in robotic surgery via the da Vinci robot. More specifically, I focus on colorectal and thoracic specialties helping surgeons overcome surgical challenges to provide better outcomes for patients. Da Vinci surgery across the board has been proven to show better outcomes for patients and is an unbelievable technology to represent.

- What career path did you choose after graduation, and how did your GW experience influence that choice?
Following graduation, I was focused on working in medical devices for an industry leader. Intuitive is just that, the leader in the soft tissue surgical space. GW helped influence that choice because being a student-athlete taught me to be self-driven, work hard to achieve my goals and represent a team and culture in a positive way. Those experiences prepared me for my career with Intuitive, and I've been with the company since 2019.

- How did your experience as a student-athlete shape you, both personally and professionally?
Being a student-athlete maintained the thrill of competition, helped me come up with a process to achieve my goals and instilled a relentless work ethic that I take with me into the professional world. I would not be where I am today professionally without my experience as a student-athlete. I believe it helped set me apart in the interview process and better equipped me to face challenges in a professional environment. Baseball is a sport of failure, even the best were successful less than half the time. This helped instill a resilient mentality as a player, student and now as a working professional in a competitive industry.

- What was the transition like from being a college athlete to your post-college life?
The transition into post-college life was challenging at first. The bonds created with my teammates over those four years were nothing short of a brotherhood. After my senior season, one of the hardest challenges was seeing all my teammates go their separate ways in life. We did everything together and I made friends for life. I filled that void by learning to play guitar immediately after college while I was still trying to figure things out. I now sing and play professionally in a two-person acoustic guitar group.
Â
- What are some of your fondest memories from your time at GW?
I'm going to sound redundant, but the brotherhood. Wins and losses come and go, but it's traveling together, playing cards on the bus or in the hotel, having fun off the field and doing everything together that contributes to my fondest memories. As a player, more specifically, it was the day we spent at Quantico working out with the Marines. That day was always a challenging and unique opportunity, but it allowed us to keep things in perspective. Truly an only at GW moment.
Â
- What advice would you give to current college athletes about preparing for life after sports?
If there was one thing I could tell current college athletes, I'd say to network and connect with as many people as possible. It's ultimately what led me into my industry, and I've never looked back. Use that to find like-minded people and something you are passionate about. Also, don't take things too seriously; it will all work itself out. College is the most unique and memorable time of your life. Be present and enjoy the ride.

- Tell us about your Ironman experience. What was your inspiration for signing up? What keeps you motivated in the training process? When and where is the competition?
I decided to sign up for the Lake Placid Ironman on July 20
th, 2025. I'm participating in this event to help raise money and awareness for bladder cancer research for the same surgeon who conducted my dad's cancer surgery in January of 2024. I decided to participate in this event for all the patients who cannot. What keeps me motivated is seeing all the donations continue to roll in and the support on my Instagram page as I document this journey.
