Commerce (Finance) & Law — UNSW Student · Footballer · Developer

Second-year Commerce/Law student at UNSW with experience in corporate finance and corporate law. I'm drawn to where deals get structured, analysed, and executed. Outside of work I play football at the NPL level, build things with code, and care about executing projects with intention, passion, and hard work.
