Currently

I'm currently studying Business Administration at the Beedie School of Business at Simon Fraser University. I plan to enroll in a Business Administration and Computer Science Joint Major program.

This fall, I will be taking Discrete Math, Managerial Economics, Financial Accounting, and Introduction to Computer Science.

This year, I will be conducting equity research on various financial instruments for the SFU Investing Club, where we will also compete in stock pitch competitions, investing challenges, and case studies.

I am a Project Lead at the SFU Open Source Development Club. I will be leading the team and continuing to develop and expand Financial Fast Feed which automatically displays and summarizes various financial news articles using GPT 3.5.

In my spare time I enjoy working on a variety of different types of projects, as well as doing sports such as Soccer, Golf, Tennis, Running, and more.

In the future I plan to build SaaS products for businesses and people.
