Engineering is all about problem solving.
My parents are elementary school teachers. They taught me the importance of sharing what you learn and collaborating with others. They have taught generations of young kids reading, math and history, and while I have not gone down the same career path, I also want to use my life to help people around me.
My most memorable experience was TigerHacks.
I participated in the hackathon my freshman year and again my senior — both times were a blast. It really showed the growth of my skills, and the group I worked with as a freshman ended up becoming some of my roommates the next few years.
A classmate and I started TigerQuant, which is geared towards students interested in the stock market and trading combined with computer science experience. The club has since grown to 30 committed members. I am very proud that a lot of students have found this club exciting and have helped many of them secure internships and jobs in the field.
Studying in Tokyo was probably the most influential experience of my college life.
It’s hard to overstate the benefits that come with studying abroad. I lived a very different lifestyle in one of the world’s largest cities, taking the train every day, eating foods I’d never seen before, and exploring a nightlife I hadn’t found anywhere in the United States.
I was a financial analyst intern with Tradebot Systems last summer.
I took part in a structured program that taught me a lot of coding and work principles that I have since applied in all my classes and projects. The biggest thing I got out of this experience was learning to work with others in coding, where it’s notoriously easy to step on each other’s toes. I also learned the technical skills of building an enterprise application. I will be returning there as a full-time employee in June 2026.
