About Ian Brown

I’m a sophomore at Carnegie Mellon University’s Tepper School of Business, pursuing a B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in finance, and I compete on the men’s basketball team. My academic focus spans finance, analytics, and strategy, with notable coursework in Multivariate Analysis, Business Computing, Accounting, Macroeconomics, and Methods for Statistics and Data Science. I am a funded futures trader trading futures through a structured, rules-based approach emphasizing risk management and consistency. I’m currently deepening my knowledge through learning BookMap, and using level 2 market data to understand the market in depth. Outside the classroom, I run Windy City Vintage, an online premium streetwear shop with over 500 verified sales and a 100% five-star rating, and I lead IB Basketball Training, a private coaching business focused on youth player development. I’m currently seeking internship opportunities in sales and trading where I can apply my background, market experience, and competitive mindset to solve problems, create value, and keep learning from top performers in the field.
