Why I Do the Work That I Do

In my brief bio, I shared what work I do, but I haven't shared why I do it. Below, you'll find a quick one-sentence explanation of my story/motivation behind every project I've undertaken.

Product Management & Quantitative Research Intern - Elastics AI

I am excited by the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with the intricacies of the quantitative field, help an innovative idea grow into a client-ready platform, and collaborate directly with senior leadership and other professionals. 

Alumni Outreach Supervisor - NYU Engagement Center

I began this on-campus job to meet and network with people from various fields and help build a bridge between NYU and its alumni, all while growing my communication and speaking skills. 

Founder - FME Articles

Noticing that people were unnecessarily overspending on home items, I began writing about budget home tips and gadget reviews to help people save money. 

Teen Financial Consultant - Teen Bucks

I realized that there were zero financial literacy courses at my high school, inspiring me to initiate a nonprofit through which I teach other teens personal finance concepts, such as budgeting and investing. 

Head Accountant - WALTER

This part-time job allows me to add value to a firm that contributes to sustainability, a goal that aligns with my personal values. 

Financial Operations Analyst - Graymatter Resource

Graymatter Resource was my family startup, and I couldn't pass on the chance to support my family startup while growing my financial operations acumen with real-world experience and a supportive team. 

Social Change Advocate - Dual School

I joined this summer-long program to work on a project for the benefit of my community alongside other students who shared the same vision but came from diverse backgrounds. 

Head TA - MathPlus

I attended MathPlus as a student for almost 6 years, so working there was a way for me to give back to the educational institution responsible for growing my expertise and interest in math.
