I am an expert tutor specializing in GMAT, SIE, Series 7, 57, and 63 exam preparation as well as Macroeconomics / Statistics / Python / C# programming who is passionate about helping individuals achieve their goals and strengthen comprehension in challenging subjects. I obsess over the needs of my students and help to lead them into learning the right skills to get ahead. It is my job to help turn frustration into capabilities, complexity into simplicity, and hard working students into accomplished individuals.

I currently work as a professional quant trader / portfolio manager on Wall Street. I have active FINRA Series 7 and Series 57 licenses. I have a background as both a software programmer and a research analyst at many major Fortune 500 companies. My academic background includes a BS double major in Economics and Computer Science from Yale as well as an MBA in Finance from NYU Stern.

I'm an experienced GMAT tutor that can offer clever strategy ideas about how to approach the exam. I scored a 740 on the GMAT on the first try. I have my MBA from NYU Stern.

I'm an experienced Python and C# tutor having helped hundreds of students. I make hands-on use of Python and C# on a daily basis, so I bring a fresh fluency to all sessions. I'm a former teaching assistant in the Yale computer science program.

I'm an experienced SIE, Series 7 and Series 57 tutor, having helped hundreds of students. A session with me is a session with a specialist -- you would be learning options from a professional options trader and you would be learning fixed income from a former fixed income research analyst, not merely someone who has memorized the material.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I'm happy to offer provide details about how I can help you tackle your challenges!

Smart and knowledgeable tutor

Have a better understanding of a 'Put' spread for intraday momentum trading, which is completely different from what I am used to in relation to swing trading. Looking forward to my future lessons with John, as I know it will take a little time to get the hang of this.
