Experience

  1. Demand Forecasting & Production Planning Intern, Jiaxing Xinchengda Fashion Co., Ltd.

    Jun 2023 – Present · Jiaxing, China

    • Built a single source of truth for demand planning covering 10 years of order history by consolidating, cleaning, deduplicating, and standardizing records into an analysis-ready dataset.
    • Cut demand-forecast error by 3.6% WAPE vs. the incumbent exponential-smoothing baseline across 194 SKUs, sharpening inputs for production volume, by training a LightGBM model on order history.
    • Equipped the VP of Operations to evaluate expansion into Vietnam, Bangladesh, and 3 other markets by benchmarking 20+ garment manufacturers on labor cost, tariff exposure, and lead time in a side-by-side risk and tradeoff comparison.
  2. Compliance Intern, Guardian Regulatory Consulting Limited

    May 2026 – Aug 2026 · Hong Kong

    • Enforced data governance on client due-diligence records, surfacing 50 non-compliant files (missing fields, expired IDs, overdue reviews) across 5 accounts in 3 client reviews, with a rule-based Python (pandas) validation script mapped to SFC CDD requirements.
    • Designed automation for the monthly FRR liquid-capital return, projected to cut 30 minutes of manual work per filing, by prototyping a Python tool on synthetic data that applies SFC haircuts and tests the HK$3m minimum and 120% early-warning threshold.
  3. Dealing Intern, Tiger Brokers

    Jul 2025 – Aug 2025 · Hong Kong

    • Translated equity research on NVIDIA, BYD, and Chalco into 3 client-facing infographics for a retail audience with no finance background.
    • Pitched an independent long thesis on Chalco to the asset management team, backed by a DCF and comps model built in Excel, and stress-tested the two risks most likely to break it.
  4. Investment Banking Intern, Guotai Junan Securities

    Jul 2024 – Aug 2024 · Shanghai, China

    • Cleared an automotive power-electronics IPO candidate's financials for senior review by reconciling 4 balance-sheet and income-statement line items to SSE disclosure rules, flagging inconsistencies, and tracking open diligence items for the deal team.
  5. Intern, Apex By Bybit

    Jun 2024 – Jul 2024

    • Built the product pitch deck for a concentrated-liquidity AMM decentralized exchange on Mantle Network, making the market case from DeFi TVL and trading-volume data and diagramming L2 rollup architecture, fee mechanics, and governance flow.
    • Screened five small-cap digital assets on NVT and MVRV ratios, tokenomics, and wallet growth, then tested sentiment and momentum against what was already priced in and issued a Buy or Hold call on each.
