↳ I grew up in the Greater Toronto Area.. So basically, I'm not actually from Toronto, but I will very confidently lie and tell other people I'm from Toronto. Ah, the cn tower..I think I've heard it before..

Things I am actually passionate about outside of School or Work:
↳ Ex-Athlete. Played competitive sports growing up like snowboard racing, hockey, volleyball, tennis, badminton, basketball. Sometimes I wish I spent that time into c++ growing up, but I don't regret the social hustle and community aspect. Why? business case comp, tech sales, british parliment debate, financial competition, etc
↳ I've liked Poker since gr8. One of my current favourite pro players is Shiina Okamoto(Japan's female Phil Ivey), She's an ex-investment banker, (quit job to go pro)
And I believe there is a skill gap (she's abusing) between Shiina and the rest of the female pros. She's much more cold-blooded / sharper math playing range instinct than her WSOP competition at least. She finds exploits/vulnerabilities well,
and very capable of rivalling the male pros as she continues to study hard. Even though she can barely speak english in her analysis, I fear lots of thoughtful strategy through her polarizing loose yet bully-aggresive style. She is rather dangerous and uncomfortable to play against in her prime. (Dominating in ICM tournaments, not cash)
↳ In highschool I convinced myself I liked financial markets enough for a career. I was not coding. I thought I cared about markets since my family background revolves around it, and naturally financial literacy is crucial to becoming a proper member of society.
However, I do deeply appreciate good strategies deployed by hedge funds.





↳ If anything about my background speaks to you, please do reach out, I would love to make new friends and get to know more people !
