Jess Li, Masters in Analytics, 2023

Hi! My name is Jess Li. I graduated from WashU Olin Business School in December 2024 with a Master’s in Business Analytics – Fintech Track. I completed my bachelor’s at the University of Pittsburgh, majoring in Finance and minoring in French. I gained several internships with private equity and some startups. Fun fact about me: I played lacrosse for six years since high school and love Golden Retrievers. During my program at WashU, I worked as the VP of Finance of the SMP student council and as a student worker at the Graduation Program Office. These experiences allowed me to develop my skills further and connect with diverse individuals within the Olin community, which I thoroughly enjoyed. After graduation, I worked with a non-profit that teaches drone technology to underserved students while pursuing career opportunities in finance. I’m excited about applying the skills I gained from my education and thriving in a dynamic sector.
