The "Executive Function" Approach to Finance

If you are staring at your Corporate Finance or Derivatives syllabus feeling overwhelmed, the problem usually isn't your intelligence—it's the structure. Finance classes move fast, and generic textbooks are terrible at explaining the "why."

The "Executive Function" Approach to Finance

If you are staring at your Corporate Finance or Derivatives syllabus feeling overwhelmed, the problem usually isn't your intelligence—it's the structure. Finance classes move fast, and generic textbooks are terrible at explaining the "why."

Who I Help: I specialize in working with university students (NYU, Columbia, Fordham) and CFA candidates who are struggling to connect complex theory to exam questions. My niche is helping high-potential students (including those with ADHD/Executive Function challenges) organize chaotic concepts into logical, step-by-step frameworks.

My Background:

Education: NYU Stern (Finance & Business).

Real-World Application: Former Summer Analyst at Unitex Investment Holdings (Valuation & Due Diligence) and Goldey Capital (Private Wealth). I have applied these textbook concepts to real deals, so I know exactly where the theory meets reality.

Track Record: 260+ hours on Wyzant with a 5-Star rating.

How We Work: We don't just "do homework." We build a system. Whether you are stuck on Black-Scholes, Financial Statement Analysis, or the TI BA II Plus calculator, I will give you the specific "Cheat Sheets" and workflows you need to solve problems on autopilot during the exam.

Results: My students don't just pass; they master the material. See my reviews below from students like Noah (15+ sessions) who turned their semesters around.

Approved Subjects

ADHD

ADHD

I have experience tutoring students with executive functioning disorders and understand how to motivate them. I have helped them overcome their challenges in organizational and general study skills. This has helped them to become more independent and enjoy greater success in their personal and academic lives.
Business

Business

I graduated from a top business school, I am extremely passionate about my experience and want to share it with as many students as possible.
CFA

CFA

I help CFA Level 1 candidates master the core finance concepts that make or break the exam — Corporate Finance, Financial Statement Analysis, Equity Valuation, and Portfolio Management. As an NYU Stern graduate, I earned A's in all of these subjects at one of the top finance programs in the country, and I've successfully tutored CFA candidates through to passing their exam. My approach focuses on building real understanding of the underlying logic rather than formula memorization, with structured cheat sheets and workflows that make exam-day problem solving feel automatic
Finance

Finance

I specialize in the hardest parts of the Finance curriculum: Corporate Finance, Derivatives (Options/Futures), and Valuation (DCF/WACC). As an NYU Stern graduate and former Investment Summer Analyst, I translate complex textbook theory into intuitive, real-world logic. I provide custom "cheat sheets" and structured workflows to help you solve problems confidently, whether you are prepping for a difficult Midterm or the CFA Level 1. Stop memorizing formulas and start mastering the underlying concepts.
Financial Accounting

Financial Accounting

I demystify Financial Accounting by focusing on the logic of the Accounting Equation rather than rote memorization of journal entries. As an NYU Stern graduate and former Investment Analyst, I teach you how to read and link financial statements like a professional investor. My structured approach helps students connect the dots between the Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flows to solve any exam problem. We will turn your confusion into intuition so you can build the statements from scratch.
