My latest engagements in activities and projects.
I am currently pursuing a Masters degree in Information Science at University of California, Berkeley, where I'm researching to uncover patterns in human behavior and society, particularly in relation to artificial intelligence and its potential risks.
I am exploring behavioral patterns in areas such as human behavior and social interaction, finance and business operations, health and wellness, education and learning, agriculture and food security, and climate and environmental sustainability. My work is committed to identifying risks and promoting solutions that foster a balanced and sustainable future.
Prior to this, I pursued a degree in Actuarial Science, where I developed expertise in analyzing risks and solving complex mathematical problems in insurance and finance. During my undergraduate studies, I conducted a research on the ‘herding effect’ of investors in the forex market, which sparked my deep interest in understanding human behavior and decision-making processes.
This passion inspired me to delve into the fields of Behavioral Science and Information Systems, where I aim to combine my actuarial expertise with technology to address complex challenges and create meaningful impact. If you share similar interests, I would be glad to connect.
