Teaching has always been a passion of mine, and through this role, I have been able to in-spire and educate the next generation of financial experts. My academic back-ground ensures that the concepts presented in this book are not only practical but also grounded in robust statistical and probabilistic theories.

Additionally, I provide courses in preparation for the CEFA/CIIA certification on derivatives, as well as specialized corporate training on the practical use of derivatives for risk management and investment strategies.

Beyond my professional and academic pursuits, I am an avid investor with a diverse portfolio. My real estate investments have provided me with a solid foundation in asset management and long-term financial planning. As a retail investor and trader, particularly in options and ETFs, I have developed and honed strategies that consistently generate income, even in volatile market conditions.
