About me

Hey there! I am Saran Bluri (Bodduluri), a recent Computer Science graduate from Shiv Nadar University. I am passionate about all things quant.

I have worked as a Quantitative Analyst at PL Capital (current) and True Beacon, where I focused on statistical arbitrage and factor-based systematic strategies. My toolkit ranges from Tableau to TensorFlow. I'm currently focused on enhancing my skills and building things in Quant Finance.

I have had the chance to be a public speaker, data science consultant, teaching assistant, and content writer in the past, which has helped me develop a diverse skill set.

You oftentimes find me at the gym, or exploring different biryanis and seafood. I enjoy sharing my thoughts on my Substack/YT, and studying new ideas in financial markets. I am always on the lookout for opportunities to push boundaries, and make an impact.
