I am a finance professional with hands-on experience across proprietary trading, capital markets analysis, and cross-border business operations. I combine strong quantitative thinking with disciplined execution, having generated over $150K in net trading profits through a self-developed, risk-controlled futures trading framework focused on market structure, inter-market relationships, and institutional order flow. My trading experience spans Nasdaq-100 and S&P-500 E-mini futures, where I evolved from traditional technical indicators to a systematic, price-action-driven approach incorporating ICT concepts, correlation analysis, and rigorous risk management. I manage the full trade lifecycle independently—from hypothesis formation and backtesting to live execution and post-trade evaluation—operating effectively in high-pressure, autonomous environments. Beyond markets, I currently manage financial and operational functions at a cross-border trading company in New York. I have led initiatives in cash flow forecasting, inventory optimization, logistics restructuring, and supplier performance evaluation, improving capital turnover by 40%, reducing logistics costs by 22%, and supporting annual revenues exceeding $40M for multinational clients, including P&G and Costco. This experience strengthened my ability to connect financial analysis with real-world operational decision-making. Academically, I hold a BBA in Finance from The University of Hong Kong, with formal training in corporate finance, fixed income securities, derivatives, econometrics, and quantitative risk management. My project work includes DCF valuation, interest rate term structure modeling (Nelson–Siegel), bond pricing, and portfolio immunization strategies. I am particularly interested in roles within investment banking, capital markets, or trading, where analytical rigor, data-driven decision-making, and accountability for outcomes are essential. I bring a calm mindset, strong execution discipline, and an entrepreneurial approach to problem-solving.
