Hi, I'm Ryan an aspiring quantitative trader with a passion for uncovering market inefficiencies and turning data into actionable trade ideas. I actively trade equities and am constantly on the hunt for new opportunities where rigorous analysis meets real market dynamics.

I'm a data-driven student with a strong foundation in quantitative finance, statistical learning, and econometrics bridging the gap between rigorous mathematics and real-world financial applications.

With a long-term goal of pursuing a Master of Financial Engineering, I am deepening my knowledge in stochastic finance and derivatives pricing.
