Summary
Currently in my second year of the Bachelor of Actuarial and Economics course at UNSW, I have started to consider streams of specialization and explore areas of career interest. I like working with people to solving problems, especially in fields that require pattern recognition and modelling such as insurance, asset management and investment - anything finance related.
Through past holiday jobs and volunteer work, I came to understand different workplace cultures, become more effective in new team environments, and learn various soft skills (e.g. Project and time management, people engagement, real-life problem solving). I believe these experiences would fuel my personal growth and be beneficial to my career in the longer term.
During spare time, I enjoy creating music and playing piano, chess and table tennis to cultivate my mind.
