I'm a sophomore at Maryland doing premed and finance. I'm looking for a research, investment banking or markets internship for Summer 2027.
I'm premed and my major is Biological Sciences (Physiology and Neurobiology). I've worked at a cardiology practice and in pediatric rheumatology at Children's National, and I shadowed surgery at Sutter Roseville.
I study finance at Smith and I'm recruiting for investment banking and markets. Last summer I was a real estate private equity intern at Project Destined, and I'm also on the Plus One quant track.
Medicine
Research, science projects and clinical work
I tried to tell whether someone was imagining moving their left or right hand, using public EEG recordings from PhysioNet (49 participants, 2,134 trials). My CSP/LDA classifier got 60.0% balanced accuracy on recording runs it had not seen, compared to 48.7% for a majority baseline. That is better than guessing but not by a lot. You can replay the saved predictions on the page.
dpble.com/bciI wrote this research paper for my ENGL 103 class. It argues that staff training is the most cost-effective way to cut infections after surgery.
dpble.com/ssiI built 8 interactive science simulations, including Hodgkin-Huxley neuron and Beeler-Reuter heart models. I checked the heart model against a separate Python version and it matched within 0.0001 mV. The site has 12.1K Google Search impressions.
sim.dpble.comClinical experience
Volunteered 150+ hours at a cardiology practice seeing 10+ patients a day. Recorded vitals and EKGs, assisted with nuclear stress tests, and prepared saline syringes for 500+ visits.
Shadowed a robotic bariatric surgeon and team for 9 business days, watching da Vinci Xi robotic and laparoscopic procedures in the OR.
Shadowed a pediatric rheumatologist during visits for chronic autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, and organized 100+ patient records over 40+ hours.
Leadership and service
Led a youth-run nonprofit, managing the budget and fundraising for nonprofits in India and the US.

Projects
I made free timed practice for the online tests at 10 quant trading firms, including Optiver and Jane Street.
dpble.com/prepI've run 10+ real-money portfolios since July 2024 and each one tests a different strategy. My main index and ETF account is up 40.6% (time-weighted) through September 2026, and SPY is up 39.1% over the same time. The max drawdown was 12.7%. I'm also building a trading bot with Claude Code that connects to Robinhood.
I wrote an options pricer in Python that uses Black–Scholes, a binomial tree and Monte Carlo. You can compare European and American exercise and see the Greeks and implied volatility.
dpble.com/optionsA TradingView strategy I wrote in Pine Script that combines Bollinger Bands and RSI. I tested it against historical prices.

Studied Morgan Stanley's roles in CoreWeave's $1.5B IPO, Uber's $14.8B Delivery Hero bid, and OpenAI's $40B round.
Learned how middle-market sell-side M&A works, including sale readiness, buyer competition, and PE-driven deal flow.
Coursework in valuation, corporate finance, accounting, and probability and statistics.

About
I'm a sophomore at the University of Maryland double majoring in Biological Sciences (Physiology and Neurobiology) and Finance, and I'm on the pre-med track. I've spent time in clinical settings: shadowing robotic surgery at Sutter Roseville, rheumatology at Children's National seeing rare pediatric autoimmune cases, and clinical operations at Capital Cardiac Care.
On the finance side I'm recruiting for investment banking and markets. This past summer I was a real estate private equity intern with Project Destined, where I underwrote a $6.5M multifamily deal in Phoenix. I'm also in Morgan Stanley's Early Insights program and the Smith Plus One quant track, and I manage 10+ real-money portfolios on my own.
