The Crypto Landscape by Patrick J Zoro

Nikhil Jaisinghani's career in finance began a-traditionally. Leaving college with a degree in math and physics, he joined a mathematical consulting company working for the DOD and FAA. He then left the US to join the Peace Corps as a volunteer math teacher in rural Nepal. Hooked on adventure, he then taught in South India, completed a degree in international economics at Johns Hopkins, and joined the US Agency for International Development as a foreign service officer in Nigeria. He continued his passion for socially impactful work when he started a company aiming to convert flared natural gas in the Niger Delta into fertilizer and cooking fuel, then later invented a low-cost solar micro grid, and then started a venture-backed company building those solar micro grids across North India. After disagreements with his investors, Nikhil left and fell into finance, initially as an investment advisor to endowments and foundations (which he still does) and now as an options investor at Titan Strategic Income Fund. In addition to running an options fund, Nikhil has published papers on the Black Scholes model and options investor behavior and his paper presenting a new options pricing model is to be published by the Journal of Economic Studies in 2026. His options investing book, Structured Dividend Income, is also available on Amazon.

In this insightful episode, I sit down with Edson Bope, a master’s student from Zimbabwe studying Financial Engineering in Pennsylvania, who shares his journey navigating the competitive U.S. job market in search of quantitative finance roles. Edson opens up about the unique challenges international students face, from visa constraints to cultural differences in networking. He talks about his experience attending quant conferences, participating in hackathons, and leveraging LinkedIn cold outreach to build real connections with professionals at hedge funds, banks, and prop trading firms. We dive into: • 💬 How to turn an informational interview into a genuine relationship • 📊 The importance of technical prep, including case studies, coding tests, and probability brainteasers • 💼 Why many firms prefer candidates who can “hit the ground running” and how international students can bridge that expectation gap Edson also reflects on the mental resilience required during long job hunts and shares tips that worked: from making a networking spreadsheet to sending value-driven follow-ups. Whether you’re an international student or just someone looking to break into quant, this episode is packed with practical advice, real-life stories, and a reminder that persistence pays off—even across borders.
