I am a second-year student studying a Bachelor of Commerce, majoring in Finance and Economics at the University of Sydney. After graduating from Pymble Ladies' College in 2022, I was given the opportunity to work in UBS Equity Research, covering Australian Insurance and Diversified Financials, alongside my university studies. I aim to leverage this experience to excel in the world of finance. Beyond my professional aspirations, I enjoy walking my Labrador Arthur, playing tennis, and going for a swim.
