Mathematics and computer science have become widely-used tools and driving forces in the development of modern finance industry, such as algorithm trading（算法交易）, cry ptocurrencies（数字货币）, and mobile payment（移动支付）. The purpose of this statement is to describe my wonderful experiences, how my career objective of being a technical sales specialist（技术销售专家senior） in a Fin Tech company(金融科技公司) has been developed, and why I am strongly motivated to apply for MSc in Computer Science in the University of XX.

As a technical-oriented person, I am passionate about utilizing and applying cross-disciplines knowledge to solve financial problems. Driven by this interest, I have taken two internships in quantitative trading（数量化交易）, and both involved a plenty of use of mathematical modelling（数学建模计算） as well as programming.

In WanKun Investment, I used R Scripts（R脚本） to automatically fetch and reprocess（取出再加工）the data and built automatic interactive GUI to complete automatic transaction. This experience made me realize that computer science could substantially improve the speed, accuracy and reliability of trading execution（交易和执行）compared to traditional manual work. Therefore, after that, I continuously sought for work opportunities related to Fin Tech and I then took the internship in Haitong Securities（海通证券） where I work as the structurer（结构师，金融行业术语）. Haitong were applying for qualification of option market making（期权交易/期权做市）, and according to the regulatory policies of China Securities Regulatory Commission, option market making requires complex high frequency and low latency trading system（低滞后时间的交易系统）. Due to the lack of independent development in IT system. Haitong planned to purchase such system from third-party Fin Tech Company,
