Introduction

Hi I'm Kai, a third year studying economics and data science! I joined during my spring semester freshman year and am currently in my 5th semester! I've learned so much and gained so many experiences especially through my work in the client teams and starting as a consulting CM! In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, watching TV, annoying friends and mentoring high school students!

Professional Interests

I am interested in finding an intersection between tech and business especially in the data science realm. I really enjoy people and learning about how their actions can lead to the way things mainly businesses are run. Since so much data is collected on people through our daily lives, I would love to learn how to use it to help improve lives. I hope to be able to work in industry for a couple of years and depending on how things are, possibly go back to school. I still don’t know what exactly, but I hope to find out as I grow personally and professionally.
