Summary

I'm an Electrical Engineer with an interest for finance. My journey began with a solid foundation in electrical engineering, where I honed my analytical and problem-solving skills: improving value and implementing cost reduction initiatives for the Skid Steer Loader product line at John Deere. However, my curiosity and desire to understand the broader economic landscape led me to pursue a Masters in Finance. I'm driven by challenges and continuously seek opportunities to apply my expertise. Whether it's optimizing systems or managing projects, I bring a unique perspective that bridges the gap between engineering and finance.
