About

I am Gurmehar Singh, formerly a Trader at Flow Traders Hong Kong, who firmly believes that the most learning happens when you are at least one step out of your comfort zone. I've completed a Master's in Data Science where I solved problems at the intersection of Reinforcement Learning and Trading/Portfolio Management. I acquired mathematical skills and quantitative techniques to approach problems during my undergraduate years. This toolbox, coupled with my proficiency in coding, allows me to implement and validate my ideas systematically.
