Reflections beyond the core — volunteering, networking and talks I attend.
Co-founded and helped lead a GTM-focused innovation event in Shanghai — bridging hackathon projects and early startups to real users through rapid testing, content, launch strategy, and community exposure.
Collaborative session between Swiss market supervision and Westpac on how regulation, compliance technology, and regional banking innovation intersect in practice.
Small-group visit to UBS’s Sydney trading floor: how risk, liquidity, and client flow come together in real time—and what “good” looks like when markets move fast.
Fast-paced case crack with Accenture practitioners—problem framing, hypothesis trees, and a credible storyline you can defend in 24 hours of pressure.
Office session hosted by Morgan Stanley’s UNIT program, focused on how teams think about industry structure, competitive dynamics, and client problems. Took away a clearer picture of day-to-day analyst work, plus concrete recruiting advice and CV/behavioral signals that matter.
Community meetup covering Postgres performance tuning, indexing trade-offs, and operational reliability in real systems. Left with a tighter mental model for query planning, observability signals, and how teams keep data services stable under load.
Perspectives on macro investing and the role of analysts in navigating market uncertainty. Useful framing on how research, risk, and client context connect in decision-making, plus a few heuristics for communicating views under uncertainty.
Building agents, rapid feedback loops, and how tooling accelerates iteration in practice.
