From November 2021 to October 2022, I embarked on a transformative journey to transition from a role as a Software Automation Tester to a Quantitative Researcher. During this period, I dedicated myself to acquiring specialized knowledge and skills in quantitative finance through rigorous self-study and formal education.

Through this comprehensive program, I gained a deep understanding of quantitative trading strategies, financial markets, and algorithmic trading techniques. By immersing myself in topics such as statistical arbitrage, machine learning in trading, and risk management, I honed the expertise necessary to thrive in the field of quantitative research.
This intensive period of learning and growth equipped me with the tools and insights needed to make a successful transition into the world of quantitative finance.
