About

Making Quantitative Finance Known. Open to brand or business deals: johannesmeyer2017@gmail.com I’m an 18-year-old from Ireland, currently at Stellenbosch High School, and set to study BCom Mathematical Sciences (Financial Risk Management) at Stellenbosch University in 2026.I’m deeply interested in quantitative finance, programming, and mathematics. I invest and trade independently, with a focus on ETF investing and forex trading I code mainly in C++ (with a focus on high-performance computing, algorithms, and data structures) and also use Python for machine learning and option pricing models. I run Quant Conversations, a podcast where I speak with professionals in the quant space. Before that, I wrote for Young & Calculated, a blog focused on finance, tech, and business insights. As a LinkedIn creator, I’ve generated over 6 million impressions and built a community of 23,000+ followers in just six months I also founded Quant Enthusiasts, a growing global community of over 5,000 members across Discord and WhatsApp, connecting students and professionals interested in quantitative finance. Outside of finance, I enjoy cricket, violin, and choir, and I’m driven by a long-term goal to study at a top-tier institution and build a respected career in quantitative finance.
