02 Philosophy & Background

Understanding Finance Beyond the Numbers

My interest in finance lies in understanding not only how financial results are generated, but also the business decisions, market conditions, and risks behind them.

As a Banking and International Finance student at Foreign Trade University, I have been building a foundation in financial analysis, economics, quantitative methods, and data analytics. I am particularly interested in applying analytical tools to real-world financial and business problems, from evaluating corporate performance to understanding credit risk and banking activities.

My learning journey extends beyond technical skills. Through leadership roles at the Future Bankers Network, I have gained experience in organizing professional initiatives, leading teams, and translating ideas into tangible outcomes.

I am open to opportunities across financial analysis, banking analysis, credit and risk analysis, corporate finance, and FP&A, where structured thinking, analytical rigor, and a strong understanding of business context are essential.

"I believe effective analysis goes beyond producing numbers. It means asking the right questions, understanding the limitations of the evidence, and providing insights that support better decisions."
