“I build things — algorithms, startups, and beats.”
Born in Shanghai, raised in Milton, Massachusetts — I moved to the States at eleven and never looked back. I'm at Georgetown studying finance and international relations with a CS minor, and I went to Saint Mark's School before that. Most of what I know came from shipping things: trading algos at Clockwork, scaling Ambees as CEO, making beats that hit Spotify editorial playlists. I'm verified on Spotify with 2M+ streams as Eternity X. On any given day I'm reading Matt Levine, watching Celtics tape, and listening to Dominic Fike.
A hyperlocalized agentic data layer for colleges — helping lost and ambitious students discover their passion that pays.
We built Ambees because every freshman we knew was lost. The career center gives you a pamphlet; we wanted to give you a map. Ambees is an AI-powered career exploration platform with interactive mind map visualizations, personalized roadmaps, RIASEC assessments, and school-specific course and club data — all scoped to the student's university. Live at Georgetown and Berkeley with 14,000+ courses indexed, admitted to Georgetown's Summer Launch Incubator with $10K in backing.
A privacy-first iOS hearing protection app — built in 72 hours at HoyaHacks 2026.
Find where your world overlaps — a real-time web app for discovering what you and someone else actually have in common.

Clockwork Group
I joined Clockwork to figure out if I could beat the market with code. Turns out, with the right mentor and enough late nights, you can. I'm building time-based price movement strategies for precious metals — gold, platinum, zinc — under a former hedge fund manager who doesn't let bad logic slide. The craziest part? I helped brand and commercialize our proprietary algos, which contributed to a seven-figure outcome.

Georgetown A&D Investment Fund (GADIF)
Georgetown's aerospace and defense student investment fund. I went deep on three tickers: BITW (digital-asset adoption), DIME (defense spending cycles), and Honeywell (aerospace recovery). The best part is defending your thesis in front of twenty people trying to poke holes in your valuation — it sharpens your thinking fast.

Tungsten Partners
Real estate was my crash course in how big money actually moves. I prepped research packets for the CEO, dug into a Philadelphia hotel acquisition (zoning law rabbit holes are wild), and stress-tested a Manhattan retail conversion against the firm's feasibility framework. Every week felt like a masterclass in asking the right questions about a deal.
Evaluated multi-million dollar acquisitions
Sterling Business Capital
My first real taste of M&A. I ran valuation and diligence on a ~$4M sell-side mandate for a consumer fragrance business — the kind of work where you're reading through years of financials to tell a story about what a company is actually worth. I also managed the CRM to track how investors were engaging with our materials. It taught me that deals are won on preparation, not just pitch.
Led diligence on $4M M&A mandate
Cedar Oak Capital
PE from the inside, on a scrappy 10-person consumer retail team. I was the person cold-emailing founders, qualifying consulting opportunities, and figuring out which management teams were worth a deeper conversation. Small team meant I got to see every part of the deal process — not just my slice of it.
Consumer retail deal sourcing & outreach
Selected for Goldman Sachs' flagship early-identification program — a multi-day deep dive into the firm alongside senior bankers and a tight cohort of sophomores. Getting in the room at 200 West is the kind of opportunity you don't take for granted.
Selected for PIMCO's Prep program — an intensive experience with one of the world's largest fixed income asset managers. A chance to learn how the institutional side of markets thinks about risk and allocation.
Admitted to FTI Consulting's IMPACT program. Strategic consulting is a different muscle than trading, and I wanted to see how the other side of finance thinks about problems.
Admitted to Georgetown's most competitive startup incubator with Ambees — an AI career exploration platform live at Georgetown and Berkeley. Backed with $10K in funding to scale across more universities.
Helped turn our trading algorithms at Clockwork from internal tools into a product someone actually paid seven figures for. I handled the branding and pitch work — turns out selling an algo is its own kind of challenge.
Built bloop., a privacy-first hearing protection app, in 72 hours at Georgetown's annual hackathon. Took 3rd place overall and won the MLH Best .Tech Domain Name prize. The adrenaline of building under pressure is genuinely addictive.
Selected for Nomura's professional summit — being in a room with people who think about markets at that scale was humbling and motivating in equal measure.
Won Class D and Class C at the New Englands championship in the same season with Georgetown's D1 club squash team. Two titles, one weekend.
Two million streams as Eternity X — verified on Spotify, placed on editorial playlists. No label, no manager. Started on GarageBand in seventh grade, switched to Ableton, produced for rappers on BeatStars, started DX Media to connect deserving artists with playlist curators. The distribution game taught me more about marketing than any class.

It started in seventh grade — I had opinions about every EDM track I heard and eventually decided to fix them myself. I picked up my mom's old MacBook, opened GarageBand, and never stopped. I always wanted to be a one-man band, able to play every instrument on a record, and I kind of got there. I switched to Ableton, started producing for rappers on BeatStars and SoundCloud, then built DX Media to connect artists I believed in with playlist curators who could get them heard. One of my own tracks landed on a Spotify editorial playlist — that was the unlock. Now I'm verified on Spotify with 2M+ streams as Eternity X. No label, no manager, just iteration.
I play on Georgetown's D1 competitive club squash team. In high school at Saint Mark's, I played all four varsity years — we won the Class D nationals championship and the Class C New England championships. Squash taught me something I apply everywhere: in that glass box, every mistake is yours. No teammate to blame, no lucky bounce to hide behind. That accountability is addictive once you get used to it.
The original dream was to play every instrument in a band by myself — and I kind of got there. I can play a lot of instruments, but drums is the one I play exceptionally. Hours behind a kit are how I decompress. Rhythm is the foundation of everything: music, trading rhythms, conversation pace. I just think in beats.
Recently fell deep into F1 and haven't looked back. What gets me isn't just the racing — it's the intersection of engineering precision, real-time strategy, and the fact that tiny marginal decisions compound into wins or losses over 50 laps. Sounds familiar. Papaya forever.
Born and raised near Boston, grew up a Celtics fan, huge Jayson Tatum believer. Banner 18 and counting. There's no better feeling than watching a championship team that actually plays the right way — chemistry over ego, every time.
Money Stuff by Matt Levine is the best thing written about finance — bar none. If you want to understand how markets actually work, read it every day. I also absorb Y Combinator content like it's oxygen. Founders talking about the worst days of building is somehow the most motivating thing I've heard.
