About Me

I'm a first-year Management and Organizational Studies student at Western University, pursuing a specialization in Finance with a passion for financial markets and investment analysis. My journey in finance began in eighth grade when I won my school's stock competition, sparking a deep interest in markets that has only grown stronger over the years.

As the founder of MarketDrafts, I've built a platform that serves over 1,000 monthly readers with independent research and analysis. I specialize in uncovering value in small-cap and international markets, with a focus on companies that traditional analysts often overlook.

My approach combines rigorous fundamental analysis with a keen understanding of market psychology and behavioral economics. I believe in the power of financial literacy and am committed to making complex financial concepts accessible to everyone.

Investment Philosophy

My investment approach is grounded in fundamental analysis with a long-term perspective. I focus on identifying high-quality companies with sustainable competitive advantages, strong management teams, and attractive valuations. I believe in thorough due diligence, margin of safety, and the power of compounding returns over time.

I'm particularly interested in small-cap and international markets where inefficiencies create opportunities for patient investors. My research process combines quantitative analysis with qualitative factors to develop a comprehensive understanding of each investment opportunity.
