What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, analytically rigorous role in trading or investment where I can apply derivatives and equity analysis, build models, and grow within a high-performance team.

I am an MSc Finance & Global Trading candidate with hands-on experience in equity research, portfolio analysis, derivatives strategies, and live trading simulations. I have built DCF and sensitivity models, delivered investment recommendations to boards, and applied risk management frameworks using tools such as Bloomberg, LSEG, Trading Technologies (TT) and Volcube.

As a former Division I team captain and European U20 Champion, I combine leadership, resilience, and disciplined decision-making under pressure. I am proactive, adaptable, and eager to contribute analytical rigour and clear financial storytelling to cross-functional teams within a dynamic trading or investment environment.
