About Me

Hi! I’m Beyonce, a student at USC majoring in Artificial Intelligence for Business and Applied & Computational Mathematics. I’m particularly interested in how AI, data science, and computational tools can be applied to uncover insights, streamline decision-making, and personalize user experiences in industries like entertainment, emerging tech, and fintech. On campus, I serve as the Director of Recruitment for the Association of Innovative Marketing, choreograph for Xpressions Dance Company, and conduct research with the Annenberg Inclusion Initiative. This past summer, I interned at Capstone Investment Advisors as an AI and Automation Analyst Intern in the Treasury department, where I built a convertible bonds allocation optimization model, developed a database mapping algorithm that leverages AI, and contributed to other projects aimed at boosting operational efficiency. In my free time, I love dancing, playing tennis, skiing, exploring new restaurants, hiking, and spending time at the beach.
