About
I am an Economics graduate with a passion for financial markets, leadership, and problem-solving. My academic background, combined with hands-on experience in proprietary trading and customer service, has equipped me with the skills to excel in high-pressure environments. I take pride in being a proactive and adaptable individual, demonstrated by my success in the rigorous FundingPips challenge and leadership roles in the Air Cadets and sports teams.
With four years of experience in trading across currency pairs, commodities, and indices, I have developed a strong foundation in technical analysis, strategic planning, and risk management. My bar management experience and customer service role at Tesco honed my interpersonal and operational skills, making me confident in both independent and team-oriented tasks. I also bring technical expertise, such as building a personal computer and fluency in multiple languages.
I am highly motivated to apply my analytical mindset, leadership abilities, and continuous improvement approach to a professional setting. Whether working in finance, operations, or customer service, I am committed to contributing effectively and growing alongside an ambitious team.
