Critique this finance resume (risk, entry level, analyst - positions)

Long time reader, first time poster... Looking to get a full time job in some analyst position - ideally it would be market risk or something similar but some other MO/BO role will do.

Looking for any advice on the resume - so let's have it.

I am aware of the formatting issues, don't know why it does that as it's one page in word, the second page just lists skills.

 

Destroy that personal introduction.

SonnyZH, thanks for the comment. I have mixed feelings about this - I personally don't like it either but was recommended to do so by a few recruiters given the plethora of resumes people see every day, need something short and sweet to describe it. My name is also foreign, so hence the U.S. Citizen.

I'm still relatively entry level, it's been somewhat difficult to get responses and interviews as well.

More critiques and opinions welcome - don't hold anything back!
