About Me

Welcome to My Journey

Hi! My name is Chengzhi, and I'm a Sophomore at NYU Stern studying Finance and Data Science. I am greatly interested in Quantitative Finance, especially in Quantiative Trading.

My Background

I graduated from Los Altos High School in the Bay Area in 2024. There, I met many great friends and found many interests I enjoyed. Some of these included being a part of Volare (choir), playing chess, playing tennis, exploring chemistry, and more.

Skills

At NYU Stern, I am a Quant Analyst at the Quantitative Finance Society. In the club, I've been able to learn about, explore, and implement trading strategies like pairs trading, momentum, and seasonality. I have also gotten the chance to participate in simulated trading and market-making exercises. Some pitches I have worked on are in the Portfolio Section of this website.

Philosophy

After reading Courage to be Disliked, I found myself interested in Adlerian Psychology, the idea that we can always shape who we become through our actions in the present. As such, I aspire to learn, create, and write, every day, forging myself into a tempered blade.
