As a graduate student in the University of Chicago's Financial Mathematics program, I am actively advancing my skills in mathematics, programming, and their applications to the finance sector. I look forward to course work improving my specialty in areas such as stochastic calculus and modeling, machine learning and generative models, and quantitative trading strategies and option pricing. My determination to pursue a career in Quantitative Finance, especially in Quantitative Research and Analysis, is fueled by my love for mathematics and computation. Coming from a background in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering, my pivot toward Financial Engineering began when I discovered my desire to work more exclusively with numbers than physical technologies. To address this, I simultaneously undertook a second Bachelor's Degree in Applied and Computational Mathematical Sciences, providing me with expertise in mathematics, programming, probability and statistics, and their applications. During this time at the University of Washington, I enjoyed Aerospace research opportunities, contributing to the development of experimental hypervelocity launch systems. I also found mathematical modeling projects such as numerically optimizing packing solutions for local dance teams' travels ultimately satisfying. Throughout these experiences, my affinity for computation and mathematics has been unwavering, spurring my immense excitement for Computational Finance.Approaching the dawn of my career in Quantitative Finance, I am eager to further hone my skills in mathematics and programming under the guidance of the University of Chicago's experienced and accomplished faculty. I look forward to seeking opportunities in Quantitative Research, Analysis, and Trading beginning in 2025.

Structures EngineerUniversity Of Washington Scalos Jan 2024 - Jun 2024Seattle, Washington, United StatesAs a structures engineer for the 2024 Supersonic Configurations at Low Speeds (SCALOS) capstone team at the University of Washington, I worked with a team of engineers toward developing a detailed supersonic airliner concept and a database for supersonic aircraft performance to be delivered to NASA. In this role, I gained experience working in commercial wind tunnels, running experiments, collecting and analyzing data, and designing and machining components for testing. This data was then used to inform the design of a supersonic airliner concept. For this effort, I was in charge of designing the wing structure and spatial integration, including landing gear design and integration, fuel tank design, and control surface definition. This experience taught me invaluable skills in professional teamwork, engineering design, and technical writing and presentation in addition to technical engineering skills in CAD and data analysis.

Uw Ram Lab Team MemberUniversity Of Washington Sep 2022 - Oct 2023Seattle, Washington, United StatesAs a member of the University of Washington's Ram Accelerator Research Team, I worked alongside combustion experts Dr. Carl Knowlen and PhD candidate John Correy on the development of a hypervelocity launch system. Repurposing the thermodynamic processes used in ramjet engines to propel a projectile through a fuel filled environment, the Ram Accelerator has exciting implications for hypervelocity launch applications such as direct space launch and mining technologies. While on the team, I gained valuable technical experience with thermodynamics, instrumentation, and data analysis and processing in addition to experience with being part of a diverse team of engineers. -
Nasa Space Grant Consortium Summer Undergraduate ResearcherWashington Nasa Space Grant Consortium Jun 2023 - Aug 2023Seattle, Washington, United StatesUnder the Washington NASA Space Grant Consortium, I received funding to further my involvement in the Ram Accelerator research at the University of Washington for several months. During this time, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to lead an investigation on rearward moving shockwaves that were identified in the starting stages of the accelerator after each hypervelocity launch. Using magnetic sensors fixed in the apparatus to identify the exact location of the projectile in time while using pressure transducers to track the shockwaves, the team and I were able to collect and analyze data from over 40 experiments. The investigation yielded exciting results, as we were able to conclude that the success of a shot (whether or not the projectile experienced a wave unstart event) was correlated with the location of origin of the rearward moving shockwave. With further investigation of the relationship between the starting point of the rearward moving shockwave in the accelerator and the success of a launch, our understanding of undesired wave unstart events could be greatly improved. I am very grateful to the Washington NASA Space Grant Consortium, the University of Washington, our sponsor Pipeline to Space, and my mentors Dr. Carl Knowlen and PhD Candidate John Correy for this opportunity which provided me with hands on experience in thermodynamics, instrumentation, data analysis and collection, technical writing and presentation, professional teamwork, and leadership.
