About Sean
Hi, I'm Sean! I am a practicing Quantitative Portfolio Manager, an Engineer, and a CFA Charterholder.
I know firsthand how overwhelming finance, math, and coding courses can feel. A few years ago, I successfully navigated all three levels of the CFA exams back-to-back, while also completing my MBA. Through that grueling process, I learned exactly what it takes to master complex financial concepts efficiently, without burning out.
Throughout my career building automated models for wealth management firms, I've realized that my true passion is mentoring junior analysts and helping students demystify the world of finance. Whether you are feeling stuck on a tough MBA corporate finance assignment, intimidated by the massive CFA curriculum, or looking to learn Python and Excel to advance your career, I am here to help.
My goal is to provide a supportive, stress-free environment where we focus on building your confidence and making the material click. No question is ever too basic. Let's work together to crush your academic and professional goals!

My Teaching Approach & Methodology My approach to teaching is built on a unique foundation: I am an Engineer, an MBA graduate, and a CFA Charterholder. Because of my engineering background, my methodology focuses entirely on logical frameworks rather than rote memorization. Finance and quantitative analysis can feel overwhelming when viewed as a giant list of formulas. My goal is to break those formulas down into intuitive, mechanical steps so you understand the "why" behind the math.
I don't just teach theory out of a textbook. As a practicing Quantitative Portfolio Manager who builds automated trading models and asset allocation engines, I bridge the gap between academic concepts and how they are actually applied on the trading desk in the real world.
What Sets Me Apart I successfully passed all three levels of the CFA exams consecutively, back-to-back. I know exactly how grueling the curriculum is, where the trick questions hide, and the extreme time management required to pass. You aren't just getting a tutor; you are getting a mentor who has recently conquered the exact same gauntlet you are facing, and who knows how to optimize your study hours for maximum efficiency.
Who These Lessons Are For My sessions are tailored for high-achieving individuals who need to master complex material quickly:
CFA Candidates (Levels I, II, and III): We will dissect difficult readings (Fixed Income, Derivatives, Quant) and drill mock exam questions.
University Students (Undergrad & MBA): Anyone struggling with Corporate Finance, Statistics, Economics, or Quantitative Methods.
Junior Finance Professionals: Analysts looking to level up their careers by mastering Advanced Excel, VBA, or "Python for Finance" (building data pipelines, pandas, and financial models).
A Typical Lesson Plan
Diagnostic: We start by identifying your exact pain points (e.g., a specific CFA reading, a broken Excel model, or a tough MBA assignment).
Concept Breakdown: I strip away the academic jargon and explain the core mechanics of the concept using real-world market examples.
Guided Application: We work through complex problem sets, exam questions, or code snippets together, step-by-step.
Actionable Review: We conclude with a clear summary of the framework and targeted homework to ensure you retain the information under exam pressure.
Whether you are trying to survive your MBA finance core, pass the CFA exams, or learn how to code financial models in Python, I am here to help you succeed. Let's get to work!
