Devarala Chandra Sekhar

Fairfax,VA

Summary

Born and raised in a middle-class family in India, I completed my Bachelor's in Information Science. Initially drawn to finance through active investing in Indian stock markets, I learned a lot and wondered how big these financial markets are, how these markets and economies impact so many people's lifestyles, and I found my interest in finance. Now pursuing my Master's at George Mason University in Data analytics (DAE) and preparing for the Chartered Financial Analyst(cfa) Level 1 exam in February 2025 attempt, I aspire to combine my data science and finance skills to eventually start my own private equity firm in the near future.
