As an unabashed lover of prime numbers, I never thought I would find myself working as an options trader. However, my industry experience has taught me one thing: all students of mathematics are incredibly well-placed to make their mark in the workplace.

In this seminar, I will discuss how students can best prepare themselves for a successful and enjoyable career solving maths problems. Prepare to learn a bit about options trading along with some of the big problems that keep me awake at night.
