Financial Consultant

Summary

Business (FinTech) Graduate | Financial Consultant AIA | Venture Capital Aspirant

Curious, adaptable professional with 3+ years of client-facing roles and a FinTech academic background, now exploring venture capital. While my hands-on experience is in financial advisory (AIA), I’m deeply fascinated by startups, innovation, and how capital fuels growth. Eager to learn VC fundamentals—market analysis, due diligence, and startup evaluation—through an internship or mentorship (flexible hours).

Why VC? I thrive at the intersection of finance, technology, and human behavior. My strengths lie in asking questions, synthesizing information, and building relationships—skills I want to refine to support founders and investors.

What I Offer:
Financial Acumen: Experience advising clients on financial products (AIA) + FinTech coursework.
Fast Learner: Proven ability to adapt across industries (mention sectors if relevant).
Founder-Friendly Mindset: Empathetic listener and problem-solver

Timeline:

  • Now → 2026: Learn VC basics via internship while fulfilling my AIA commitments.
  • Post-2026: Transition full-time into VC (if it’s the right fit).
