I have authored and published bestselling courses and books on finance and technology. I have a passion for simplifying seemingly complex topics such as algorithmic trading, machine learning, artificial intelligence and make them accessible to students with no technology/finance background.
I have more than a decade of experience working with global investment banks in the quantitative analysis/risk management areas. My work experience has made me a firm believer in taking data driven decisions while always being mindful of the qualitative aspects of my job.
I did my undergraduate education in engineering and earned MBA and MFE degrees. I see myself as a life long learner and I deeply cherish the opportunity of sharing my knowledge with others.
