I lived in several countries before moving to the United States in middle school, and as a result, really enjoy travelling, learning new languages, and engaging with people of different cultures and backgrounds. I currently work for an asset management/financial research firm as an fixed income results analyst, and am also pursuing my PhD in Economics and International Studies.
