About Me

Finance mind,
analytical edge.

I'm a recent Economics graduate from UT Austin with a passion for financial analysis, modeling, and data-driven strategy. My background spans banking operations, real estate finance, and academic econometrics research.

I thrive at the intersection of numbers and narrative — translating complex financial data into clear, actionable insights for stakeholders. Whether it's building a DCF model, reconciling a cash ledger, or uncovering a statistical insight in Stata, I bring precision and curiosity to every problem.
