About

Throughout my career, I have discovered my sweet spot: working alongside talented teams to solve complex financial challenges through data. There’s something magical about translating numbers into meaningful business insights that cannot be replicated individually. My time at NTU has taught me that methodology matters. When markets shift or models break, systematic thinking carries you through. By weaving together technical knowledge, business understanding, and real-world communication skills, I see connections others might miss. As graduation approaches, I’m eager to put these skills to work on projects that matter. Data Science and AI are not just buzzwords on my resume. They are tools I am passionate about using to drive tangible business outcomes across industries. Outside of work, I follow MMA, enjoy strategy-based games such as mahjong and competitive esports, and like to travel. Let’s connect and explore how we might solve interesting problems together.
