Hi - I'm Lucas and I'm from Nebraska.
Yes...there was actually a cornfield next to my highschool.
I'll spare you the details but here's my quick gist:
- WashU in St. Louis (2021 - finance w/ minor in CS)
- Worked 2 years in investment banking after graduation at FT Partners
- Realized I needed a career change...when better than in your early 20s? Motivation behind my pivot here
- Took a year off to study math, machine learning, and computer science and apply to grad schools. Studied a lot but also had a bit of fun
Currently:
At UCSD studying ML (MSCS) + doing research on RLVR
I promise I'm more of a person than this - feel free to reach out! 👋
