BA, Applied Mathematics and Economics w/ an emphasis in Finance, CPA Eligible, 2024
I am from Hercules CA and my stem interests include mathematics, data management, and video/photo production. My outside hobbies include volleyball (both grass and indoors), basketball, cooking, and baking.
My long term goals is to graduate from a top 10 business school and then work in an executive position at a technology company. I hope to become a CEO or CFO of a fortune 500 company and being able to financially support my immediate family as well as take care of my parents.
I am a senior double majoring in Applied Mathematics and Economics with a concentration in finance, and intending to obtain both my CPA license and MBA. During my time at Berkeley, I participated in Cal Rotaract, intramural sports, tutored at the Student Learning Center, and most recently joined Cal NERDs as a student director. Throughout these experiences, I met many great mentors and friends who supported me in my journey at Berkeley. My hobbies outside of academics are cooking/baking, content creation, volleyball, pickleball, and going to the gym.
NERDS has been my home away from home and has welcomed me into the space despite coming here my senior year. All the student directors helped make the space very friendly and have tried their best to make sure that students feel that they can have the resources and support to succeed at UC Berkeley.
In my last year with most of my friends graduating and moving back home for work, NERDs welcomed me with open arms, treating me like family. I have been fortunate to become a student director and work on various projects that have introduced me to new skills as well as strengthen skills that I already had. NERDS helped boost my confidence and passion for helping others. Although my time with Cal NERDs was short, I am immensely grateful to the community that has made a significant impact on who I am and I am glad to have had the opportunity to give back.
NERDS helps all different communities and is a safe space/community for students to study and partake in a multitude of different opportunities ranging from tutoring to research to 3D modeling. It allows students to discover new interests and allow these students to be able to explore that field and even continue to teach incoming students.
