I became an ATLAS Fellow because I wanted to join an organization that would help me achieve my dream of entering the field of finance. Growing up in a low-income immigrant household, I understood that I could not afford to lose any opportunity that came my way. I hope to be a role model for students from similar backgrounds who are interested in finance. I want to show people that regardless of the circumstances that you are born in, as long as you work hard and take advantage of every opportunity, you can achieve success.
