About

I'm Charlene Yang, a junior at Babson College studying Business Administration (expected May 2028). I'm interested in how finance and technology shape payment systems, financial products, risk decisions, and investment research.

I use research, financial analysis, and technical tools—Python, data workflows, and product framing—to examine these questions and build practical analytical projects. My interests include blockchain and quantitative investing, shaped by study and work across the United States, Singapore, China, Japan, and Korea.
