What I'm looking for

I am seeking quantitative or data-science roles in finance that emphasize trading strategy development, statistical research, and production-ready data pipelines within collaborative, growth-oriented teams.

I have a strong interdisciplinary background that combines data, mathematics, statistics, and finance. I hold an MS in Data Science, an MS in Applied Mathematics, a postgraduate diploma in Applied Statistics, and a bachelor’s degree in Commerce with a focus on Finance. This academic foundation has given me a solid grounding in analytical thinking, quantitative modeling, and problem-solving.

My primary interests lie in data analysis, portfolio management, and investment management. I enjoy working with data to identify patterns, extract insights, and support informed decision-making. I am particularly interested in how statistical methods and data-driven models can be applied to financial markets, risk management, and portfolio construction. I value structured processes, clear documentation, and continuous learning, and I am motivated by roles where analytical skills, reliability, and attention to detail contribute directly to operational excellence and business outcomes.
