Money& Banking With Double Major In Economics

Summary

I'm a proactive and ambitious learner with a passion for economics, finance, and technology. I possess a diverse background that spans from sign language performances in high school to academic leadership roles in college. Through experiences such as serving as the Academic Director for the Economics Camp at NCCU, delving into program trading at TMBA ( A cross-university, interdisciplinary business MBA graduate student association within National Taiwan University), and pioneering the
FinTech Study Group within Google's Developer Student Club (GDSC), I've cultivated a strong foundation in both finance and technology. I'm driven by my vision to make impactful changes as an economist within international organizations (like IMF or WB), complemented by my keen interest in the practical applications of quantitative finance. Consistently seeking out challenges, I aim to combine my academic prowess with hands-on experiences to further broaden my horizons and contribute to the evolving world of finance and tech.
