What I'm looking for

I seek a role combining wealth management, client advising, and AI-enabled educational or content work in a collaborative, growth-oriented organization.

I am a Master of Finance (2021–2023) with hands-on experience providing wealth management services at China CITIC Bank and a background in language teaching. I combine financial expertise with strong interpersonal skills to advise clients and deliver tailored solutions.

I have taught Chinese to international students at Jinan University and as a part-time/volunteer teacher, developing innovative lesson plans and cultural content that improved student engagement. I am patient, diligent, and experienced working with diverse learners.

As a talented freelancer, I create AI-driven videos and educational materials about Chinese language and culture, applying programming and AI tools to produce effective learning resources. I also contribute design and editing skills for communication projects.

I led student organizations as President of the Student Union and founded a bilingual tutoring club, demonstrating leadership, event organization, and strong cross-cultural collaboration. I am seeking roles that blend finance, education, and AI-enabled content creation.
