Welcome to my Page! I am a 2nd year Master’s student at École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne, in Data Science.
Research Interests: Deep Reinforcement Learning, Portfolio optimization, Systematic stratgies, Convex and Non-Convex Optimization, Time Series forecasting.
In January 2024 I finished my 6 month internship at Garda Capital Partners as a Quantitative Analyst. I got to work on many different projects, to name a few:
- Made a Deep Reinforcement Learning Model which performs portfolio construction for a bag of strategies.
- Constructed a Risk Aversion Index and a rule-based trading strategy based on the index.
- Developed trend following strategies based on Emergent Market IRP Signals.
- Made monthly forecasts of the US Manufacturing PMI using the latest time series models.
Prior to embarking on my Master’s journey, I worked as a Software Developer at Adobe in the Digital Experience business unit. I also hold a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering Physics from Indian Institute of Technology Madras.
I am currently looking for internship oppurtinies to work as a Quantitative Analyst or Quantitative Researcher for my Master's Thesis for a period of 6 Months starting August or September 2024 as part of my Master's degree at EPFL
. I aim to leveraging my academic background, practical experiences, and passion for data science to contribute meaningfully as a Master’s Thesis student.
Thank you for visiting my page, and I look forward to sharing more about my journey and insights with you.
