About Me.
A full-time brain wrangler (aka problem solver), idea igniter (creator), and money whisperer (investor). My fun life? Paintbrushes and pedals, with plenty of time spent by a serene lake house nestled in the mountains and exploring rugged, rocky beaches.
10 years of experience in data infra, Fintech, SaaS, and dev tools, including several years directly managing elite technical teams. Skilled in building -1 to 0 to 1 products, and scaling systems in a fast-paced environment. Committed to reshaping industry landscapes by fusing disruptive solutions with sound business practices.
Professional Experiences
2018-2025
Fintech, Investor
Founding member of the growth team, then led data, owning executive communication and insights. I drove data-driven product transformations (pricing, tiers, bundling, vendors) and accelerated experimentation for product/tech innovation, including early fraud prevention. As an angel investor in an exclusive Fintech/data community, I connect resources and mentor founders.
2016-2018
Data Science
Applying my machine learning and finance/econ background, I built a robust data architecture that underpinned a large-scale platform migration (multi-million dollar), creating a foundation for scalable reporting and NLP initiatives. Additionally, I leveraged reinforcement learning to revolutionize the CRM strategy and optimize customer acquisition.
2009-2016
Education
Ranked in the top 1% at Central University of Finance and Economics (2009-2013) in international trade and economics, earning the national first-class scholarship each year, I built on this foundation at SMU, achieving 3.9+ GPAs in Business Analytics and Finance and Beta Gamma Sigma honors.
Selective Projects
These long-term projects, fueled by genuine passion, define me beyond the daily work, fostering research interests that accelerate technology innovation and generate wider industry influence with positive social impact.

IP Outputs
From early college research to my recent deep learning/LLM focus, I've aimed to develop solutions for enhanced financial contract text information retrieval and prediction. This directly improves ROI metrics like user conversion and lifetime value, driving fintech user acquisition and transformative product iteration.

Tech Innovations
Exploring voice-based technologies like authentication and banking services to significantly enhance fraud detection and prevention in Fintech. Concurrently, I leverage the investor community to connect resources for early-stage Fintech and data founders and lead the tech judge league for pitch deck competitions.

Social Impacts
Collaborated with the PCIC Intervention Team on critical care coordination for high-ER-utilizing SMI patients facing complex needs and systemic barriers. Leveraging data analysis, we achieved improved patient outcomes, reduced ER waste, and advanced sustainable and equitable care for vulnerable populations.
