Summary
To whom it may concern,
Hello, I am a graduate student enrolled in physics PhD and computer science MS programs at University of
Wisconsin-Madison. I have graduated from the most prestigious college from South Korea, KAIST with summa
cum laude and I had 3 years of full-time software development experience in industry and I have made an
iphone game in my part time.
Besides theoretical physics research on quantum computing and information, I am also very interested in
machine learning and technology in general and it is the reason I am working on CS MS degree as well. I am
eager to have new challenging experiences and I would love to have as much forefront technology experience
as possible. I am an unique candidate with both well-balanced academic research and pragmatic software
experience.
I expect to graduate in the summer, 2014 and currently looking for jobs in quantitative finance, high frequency
trading, and high tech software development.
Thank you for your consideration, have a nice day.
Sincerely, Hyungjun Lim
