Introduction
Throughout my time in college, I have had a passion for wanting to utilize my advanced computing skills and bring these to a financial analytics role. I love working and dealing with investments and money, as well as the thrill of problem solving computer science provides. I spend hours daily on LinkedIn, Forbes, and Yahoo Finance just reading the latest news and trends in finance as well as IT. This has lead me to pursue opportunities mixing both of these disciplines. I hope to continue to expand my breadth in this area and find opportunities that allow me to do so .
Denning Technology and Management Program
I am currently enrolled in this competitive minor program which will yield me a minor in Computing and Business. The purpose of joining the program is to give my computing background knowledge of business fundamentals such as management, finance, investing, accounting, and networking. In addition, as part of the program, I participated in a study abroad in Hong Kong and Shenzhen to earn an international business certificate from the University of Shenzhen. I plan to use my participation in the program to pursue ways to merge my love for finance and computing.
Investments Committee
For 2 years in college, I was a member of Georgia Tech's Investments Committee. The goal of this was to research and present on good value companies for increasing Georgia Tech's endowment through wise investments and stock allocations.
During Spring 2017, I was a Senior Analyst in the Investments Committee
Personal Investing
I take pride in my ability to wisely manage money for my future self. I have had a passion for watching savings grow my entire life. My freshman year of college I took all of the money I had earned in high school and put them into various investments accounts that I manage myself, and I have seen great growth and success. This has lead me to become commonly sought after by peers for advice on stock allocation. Since freshman year, I have established multiple portfolios using my own money including Individual Taxable accounts as well as Roth IRAs, and I dedicate myself to creating sustainable saving for the future, whether that money goes into a house, retirement, or even a startup/business venture is yet to be seen.
