Jaden Ji

President

I am a junior studying finance, accounting, and data science at DePaul University. I transferred to DePaul in the spring of 2021 after studying bioengineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Since my academic pivot, I have committed myself to the opportunities presented by Chicago and DePaul University. I am apart of the Honors Finance Cohort as well as the business fraternity, Delta Sigma Pi. Last summer I interned at Northern Trust in a fin-tech capacity, and this summer I will be interning at West Monroe as a Mergers & Acquisitions consultant.

On a personal note, I like to read, specially psychology and nonfiction books, play chess, and snowboard and practice mixed martial arts.

Hi, my name is Joey Lim and I am a current sophomore and a double major in accounting and finance. Just last summer I interned at Plante Moran doing their TRACK program and was an audit/tax rotational intern there and managed to successfully land a return offer within their risk and advisory consulting service group!

Outside of my academics, I enjoy sports such as basketball and Brazilian jiu-jitsu along with traveling whenever I can.

Hello everyone! I'm a Junior Majoring in Management Information Systems with a Minor in Data Science. In addition to my academic pursuits, I'm also an active member of Delta Sigma Pi Business Professional fraternity, where I've been refining my professional skills and networking with like-minded individuals or business professionals. But what really sets me apart is my entrepreneurial spirit—I founded my own detailing company during my senior year of high school.

On a Personal note I was born in Mexico but lived most of my life in Michigan. In my free time I watch soccer, workout, and read about the stock market.

Sydney Hwang

Hi everyone! A little bit about me is that I’m currently a sophomore studying Finance and minoring in Marketing. I grew up in the North suburbs of Illinois (Vernon Hills) and some of my hobbies include lifting, playing the cello, and traveling.

Davis Mati

VP of Communications

I am a junior majoring in Finance and minoring in Accountancy. I was born and raised in Chicago to Albanian immigrants who came to the U.S. in search of a better life. I chose DePaul and Finance because my brother, being a huge role model in my life, majored in Finance at DePaul. Seeing the things he did and the opportunities he had convinced me it was a great path to set on. Because of my background in working a lot of jobs and playing in sports since a young age, I decided to pursue a career in Wealth Management/Advisory because I want to help people with opportunities that my family didn't have when making decisions in life. I am excited to say this summer I will be working at BMO Wealth Management! Other fun facts are I love MMA and Soccer, I am part of a co-curricular finance program called the Keeley Center Academy, and I am also the VP of Professional Activities of Delta Sigma Pi.
