Tradfi Beginnings
In my previous life, I was en route to Edinburgh Medical School but ultimately chose to pursue Finance and Strategy at the University of Toronto, where I graduated with High Distinction.I was heavily involved in the Finance Association, Investment Counsel, and the Project Lead at the Finance Research and Trading Lab. I subsequently worked in Standard Chartered Bank covering PUI & CleanTech across Southeast Asia.
Journey to Startup World
I was one of 18 undergraduate students selected to join the Creative Destruction Lab, a venture incubator as a "MBA" student.I build a financial budget model for Origami Therapeutics (YC W22), a biotech company curing neurodegenerative diseases with protein degradation technology, with their financials. I also helped OpenLeverage Protocol with community management.
Where I am Now
I am currently scaling the Magna team. My responsibilities range from building internal organization tools to forming international partnerships. My experiences living in different countries and going to schools with a diverse international student population allow me to navigate business cultures easily.On the side, I enjoy building Notion templates that boost productivity, which you can find here!
