About

Interested in Fintech and Big Tech. Joined MoneyLion as a Data Scientist since June 2023. Previously a fresh graduate majoring in Data Science & Analytics, the university taught me hard skills like programming, calculus, probability, linear algebra, statistical analysis, optimization, simulation, database, and deep learning. I've also done a few internships in the domains of e-commerce, augmented reality, and oil & gas. In the future, I would probably still want to work with analytics and machine learning, and work on a business of my own. Apart from work, I enjoy travelling, piano, some table tennis and RTS video games.
