Hi, I'm Aarav – a Computer Science & Finance student at Northeastern University. I'm currently Chief of Internal Insights at Generate Product Development Studio, where I build data systems for a 150+ member innovation community. I'm also doing machine learning research at Khoury College, working on computational models for network optimization.
Finally, I'm currently exploring high-frequency trading strategies, market microstructure, and portfolio optimization while building systems that turn organizational chaos into actionable intelligence.
I'm exploring three paths: AI research, software engineering, and quantitative finance. What drives me is optimization – I've always been obsessed with finding better ways to do everything, which naturally led me to coding as the ultimate optimization tool.
When I'm not programming, you'll find me at the poker table, in the gym, or training MMA.
