Software Engineer

Computer Science student @ KCL

I'm a Computer Science student at King's College London with a passion for software engineering and quantitative finance. My work spans from building trading algorithms and market-making bots to developing full-stack AI applications for enterprise clients.

My recent experiences include internships at Virtu Financial (Quantitative Strategy), Infosys (Software Engineering), and Spring Weeks with Citadel, DRW, Millennium, Blackstone, HSBC, and Rothschild & Co.

I've achieved top placements in competitive programming and trading competitions, including top 1% globally in IMC Prosperity 3 and 12th in the UK for Google Code Jam.

With academic achievements of 11 Grade 9s at GCSE, 3 A*s at A-Level (Maths, Further Maths, Economics), and securing 8 Spring Week offers in a single recruitment cycle, I leverage this experience to create content for students.

On TikTok, Instagram, and LinkedIn, I share insights from my journey to help the next generation navigate their academic and career paths.

How To Student

Top 1% globally, 15th in the UK

Featured on the Global Leaderboard. Developed a market-making bot leveraging z-score trend-reversion, ETF arbitrage, and delta-neutral gamma scalping using Black-Scholes and implied volatility curve fitting. Leveraged game theory to maximise expected payoff dilution to maximise PnL.
