About
My hybrid experiences enabled me to discover financial value from academic literature. I studied venture capital (VC) investment during my Master's study. My PhD is related to medical devices and equipment. I managed a one million GBP investment into two London properties with a doubled yield. I worked full-time as an investment manager in medical devices, discovered an investment opportunity through literature research, verified its technology advantage by patent analysis and animal tests, and led this deal. I passed the CFA level 1 exam and two other investment qualification exams. Most high-tech VC funds could have reached a better ROIC if they understood the technology they invested in more deeply.
