Eugene Guo

There are many things that only Eugene Guo can do: start his own investment club and company, get free meals under an Uber Diamond membership, try almost all the Michelin restaurants in Shanghai, and unfortunately miss the majority of varsity basketball season due to accidentally twisting his ankle on the Alamo stairs. Eugene is a spectacle at Webb. Not only because you have to look up to be able to even see his shoulders, but because of how difficult it is to spot him anywhere outside of his room, open gym, or the loop for food delivery. With his hood up, AirPod in one ear, and hands in his pockets, Eugene resembles the brutally brilliant entrepreneurs that he looks up to. Even with this intimidating demeanor, the mere mention of his idol, Ms. Haleftiras, his favorite show Legend of the Condor Heroes, or a reference to his own performance of the song “A Bridge of Fate” can easily make him laugh. Even under his occasionally dull eyes from sleep deprivation, Eugene’s brain is always busy absorbing lessons from autobiographies such as Ray Dalio’s Principles or analyzing today’s stock market trends. Although you will no longer see Eugene dress up for his favorite event, community dinner, you will soon see him working for biotech companies or the CDC after graduating from Emory University. Incredibly bright and literate, Eugene will always live by his favorite quote “trust the process” as he becomes an investor that inspires the younger generation.
