Bio

I plan to pursue a career in investment banking and private equity, using financial expertise to create both economic and social impact. As the founder and leader of youth-focused initiatives, I have worked to provide over 4,000 students with access to educational resources, career exposure, and mentorship opportunities. Through organizing medical and wellness camps, developing STEM learning programs, and collaborating with global organizations, I have seen firsthand how access to resources can transform lives. In the future, I aim to scale these efforts by combining finance, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy, using capital not only to generate returns but to expand opportunity and create lasting change in underserved communities.
