Hello World! Welcome to my website…

Hi, I’m Pratik! I’m currently working as a Quantitative Researcher at BCA Research and pursuing a Ph.D. in Theoretical and Computational Physics at The University of Western Ontario. My academic and professional journeys converge in my passion for applying principles of physics and mathematics to the world of finance.

With an M.Sc. in Materials Physics from Brock University and ongoing doctoral research, I specialize in quantitative finance, building data-driven models and strategies for investment and trading. My toolkit includes Python, C++, SQL, MATLAB, and more, which I use to solve complex financial challenges by blending mathematics, statistics, and programming.

Outside of work and research, I share insights about finance and life in Canada through my YouTube channel, “Pratik’s Letters”. I also enjoy photography, and you can explore my visual work on Instagram at “vadapav_cuttingchai”.

Feel free to browse through my blog, share your thoughts, and connect with me for collaborations or discussions. If you’d like to know more about my professional background, check out my complete CV. Thanks for visiting!
