Welcome! In this page will you be able to find tutorials, notes, and blog posts written by me!
I recently graduated from the University of Toronto with a degree in Management and International Business. Although I was born and raised in Toronto, I took the opportunity to travel as the pandemic ended and completed a four-month exchange semester at Singapore Management University in Singapore, studying Quantitative Finance and Banking. After, I completed another exchange semester at National Taiwan University, studying Chinese. Now, I am currently in Hong Kong working in the consulting industry!
I hope to share my experience and what I have learned in this website! Hopefully people who wish to follow a similar path can benefit greatly from my sharings.
I’ve also had the pleasure to be an undergraduate teaching assistant at the University of Toronto, leading me to discover my passion for teaching. I love to make complex topics simple and understandable for any individual! These are some of my first tutorials that I wrote and some of my favourites!

In addition to the bite-sized tutorials I write that you can find at the bottom, here are some more comprehensive tutorials that provide in-depth guidance and are designed to be easily followed by breaking down complex concepts into easy to follow sections.
