I’m a multi-disciplinary finance and technology professional who brings together wealth planning, quantitative analysis, algorithmic trading, market research, risk management and web development into a unified, data-driven approach. I build end-to-end trading frameworks that blend statistical modeling, machine-learning algorithms, reinforcement-learning techniques and real-time automation to capture opportunities across cryptocurrencies, equities and macro markets. By layering macroeconomic insights with liquidity modeling, smart order routing, volatility-targeted overlays, scenario analysis and adaptive sizing, I create robust strategies that perform reliably in fast-moving, 24/7 environments. My technical toolkit spans Python, MQL5 and C++ for strategy development, SQL and VBA for data integration and process automation, and Git-based workflows for collaborative code management. I integrate these models with platforms such as Interactive Brokers, TradingView, Chainalysis and the Bloomberg Terminal to ensure seamless execution, compliance and forensic analysis. On the wealth-planning side, I guide clients through comprehensive financial assessments to craft bespoke investment roadmaps. I structure portfolios that balance growth objectives with risk controls, employing stress-testing, drawdown limits and diversified allocation frameworks that safeguard capital through market turbulence. As a business analyst and automation specialist, I’ve led digital transformation projects—from prototyping chatbots and automated document-generation pipelines using Salesforce and Quadient Designer to streamlining insurance-sector workflows. My web development skills include building responsive Shopify and WordPress sites, creating client portals and deploying e-commerce solutions that drive engagement and operational efficiency. I hold certifications in AI and reinforcement learning as well as diploma in wealth management, and am fluent in English and Afrikaans.
