About Me

Originally from Albania, I bring a perspective shaped by international experience and a willingness to take unconventional paths. After studying medicine in Romania, I realized my true fascination lay in how data and algorithms can decode complex systems — particularly financial markets.

I pivoted to computer science in the United States, where I built a strong foundation in software engineering, mathematics, and statistical analysis. I've maintained a 3.96 GPA while working part-time and building real projects that apply technical skills to financial problems.

Now at the University of Michigan pursuing a B.S. in Data Science, I'm focused on quantitative finance, statistical modeling, and market microstructure. My long-term goal is quantitative trading, where mathematical rigor meets real-world market dynamics.
