What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, innovation, and collaboration in financial technology.

I am a proactive and analytical problem solver with a strong record of taking initiative and leading high-impact projects. My experience includes designing and implementing a custom AI agent at Columbia University, which significantly reduced manual workload by over 80 percent. I am passionate about leveraging technology to help others succeed and have a leadership mindset shaped by my service as a Marine Corps team leader.

Currently, I am a Wealth Management Intern at Stifel Financial, where I support ultra-high-net-worth clients in developing personalized investment strategies. My previous role as an Asset Management Intern at DHK Financial Advisors allowed me to gain expertise in modern portfolio theory and strategic asset allocation. I am committed to continuous learning and applying my skills in financial economics to drive impactful results.
