Personal Portfolio Website | Quantitative Finance, Financial Analytics, and Applied ResearchThis repository contains the source code for my personal portfolio website - a curated presentation of my background, experience, projects, and applied work across quantitative finance, financial analytics, investment research, and financial technology.
This is a personal portfolio repository. It is not a template, starter kit, or reusable framework.
Live website: https://aurokrishnaa.me
Why This Website Exists
A resume can summarize experience, but it rarely shows how someone thinks.
I built this website to present my work in a more complete and honest way - not just what I have done, but how I approach problems, structure analysis, and connect finance with data, modeling, and technology.
Some sections are designed for quick scanning. Others are meant to be explored in depth. Everything here is intentional and continuously refined.

- Applied projects in investment analysis, derivatives, fixed income, and financial modeling
- Finance + technology work including Python workflows, dashboards, automation, and research prototypes
