-        <div class="about-body reveal">
-          <p>I'm a finance professional pursuing my Master of Science in Financial Analytics at California State University, Long Beach, with an expected graduation of August 2026. I'm also a CFA Level I candidate with a strong interest in asset management, investment research, and market-driven decision-making.</p>
-          <p>My background combines client-facing banking and branch operations at JPMorgan Chase — including internal controls, cash management, and operational compliance — with quantitative financial modeling and academic work in fixed income, derivatives pricing, machine learning, and valuation.</p>
-          <p>I bring analytical depth and an execution mindset — comfortable with financial statements, market data, and the tools that make research faster. I also hold the FINRA SIE certification and am fluent in both English and Vietnamese.</p>

-        <p class="prism-desc">Prism is an investor-focused financial analysis dashboard I built to compress the research workflow into one place. It brings together live market data, financial statements, self-computed valuation ratios, comparable-company analysis, options activity, insider trades, SEC filings, and news so a user can move from initial idea to real underwriting faster. I also engineered the valuation layer to handle edge cases cleanly — including non-meaningful P/E, negative free cash flow in DCF, and messy accounting-driven ratio distortions — so the output is more usable in real analysis, not just visually impressive.</p>
