Z Gao is a Private Wealth Advisor in New York with a decade of experience blending financial strategy, data science, and software engineering to advise technology and innovation-driven entrepreneurs.

With a Carnegie Mellon MIS and a BS in Computer Engineering, he pairs machine learning and backend development experience (including shipping an iOS app and production services at iQIYI) with investment acumen. Notably, he favors a "show me the code" approach, routinely leveraging code-first analysis to validate investment theses and client strategies.
