ABOUT OSCAR MALIK

The best minds of my generation are thinking about how to make people click ads. That sucks\"- Jeff Hammerbacher GitHub: https://github.com/oscarmalik | Hello! I\'m Oscar, a lifelong learner at the intersection of high finance and high tech. As I pursue dual degrees at McMaster in Commerce and Computer Science while minoring in Math, I’m channeling my passion for algorithmic trading, data analysis, and computational finance into solving real-world challenges. My technical skillset includes more than just these 4 languages, but Python, R, SQL, and C/C++ are some that I utilize for statistical analysis, predictive modelling, and developing innovative financial software. My curiosity extends beyond financial markets—last summer, I backpacked through the West Coast\'s rugged beauty, an experience that sharpened my perspective on sustainable investing and the importance of ESG principles in our global economy. I’m navigating the waters of machine learning, eager to contribute to the advancement of fintech innovations and sustainable financial practices. You can explore my professional portfolio on my website and see my 2 contributions to open-source projects on GitHub.
