3A Student
Contact me: d5ye@uwaterloo.ca
What I wish I had known as a first-year student: I wish I realized how fast it goes by and I wish I utilized the resources offered by the school. Make sure to:
- Stay heathy: sleep early, eat balanced meals, and don’t get too stressed out
- Network: make friends with your peers, upper years, and professors
- Find a balance: university is more than just studying, so join clubs and sports teams, and participate in school/club events
Previous co-op terms:
- Junior Financial Analyst, Haitong Securities
- Analyst, Hay Group
What are your plans for the future? I have previously worked in consulting and finance and I am looking to gain experience in the technology industry in the near future. After graduating, I plan to work in a company that is relevant in both the technology and financial industries, such as Bloomberg. If possible, I would also like to create or join a startup company after working in the industry for a few years.
