Exploring the art and science of finance

Hello! My name is Rishi and I’m a sophomore at UC Berkeley majoring in Economics and Data Science. Once upon a time, I dreamt of becoming a professional tennis player, competing in the sport’s grandest arenas; but my forehand and fate had other plans. While that door has closed, many others have opened.

During my Summer 2024 internship at a derivatives trading firm in Singapore, I developed a deep interest in investing and all things finance. Now, I’m eager to take my experiences and apply them meaningfully. Sure, I still want to change the world, but starting with a great entry-level role seems like the perfect first step.

I hope you enjoy reading my thoughts and posts as much as I enjoy writing them!
