About

Hi, I'm Tobias Lin, an aspiring quant with a deep passion in Math and Computer Science. I thrive in fast-paced environments where adaptability and quick learning are key, and I'm always seeking challenges that push me beyond my comfort zone. Currently, I'm refining my skills through rigorous coursework, detailed projects, and hands-on research experiences at NYU. I bring curiosity, diligence, and a touch of creativity to everything I do. I'm eager to collaborate, contribute, and grow in new environments where analytical thinking evolves into real-world impact. In the future, I'm looking for a role in quantitative finance or machine learning, building software at the forefront of technological innovation. I'm always up for a challenge and a discussion of a clever solution, because even solved problems can always be solved a little bit better. Feel free to reach out anytime!
