Learn From Financial Experts Who've Built Their Careers
Our instructors bring decades of real-world experience from investment banks, financial planning firms, and corporate finance departments. They don't just teach theory—they share what actually works in practice.
Meet Our InstructorsThe People Behind Your Learning
Each of our instructors has spent years working in the trenches of finance. They understand the challenges you'll face because they've been there themselves. When they teach risk management, they're drawing from deals that kept them up at night. When they explain portfolio theory, they're remembering the clients who trusted them with their life savings.
Carsten Holloway
Senior Investment Strategist
Carsten spent fifteen years managing institutional portfolios at two major Canadian banks before transitioning to education. He's particularly good at breaking down complex derivatives into understandable concepts. His students appreciate his habit of using real market examples from his trading days—both the wins and the painful losses that taught him the most.
Dmitri Calderon
Corporate Finance Director
After running financial operations for a mid-sized manufacturing company, Dmitri brings a practical perspective that many academic instructors lack. He's lived through budget crises, capital raising rounds, and the daily reality of making financial decisions with incomplete information. His approach focuses on building judgment alongside technical skills.
Rowan Ashford
Financial Advisory Principal
Rowan built his advisory practice from scratch, learning firsthand how to translate complex financial concepts for clients who just wanted to understand where their money was going. He specializes in helping students develop the communication skills that separate good financial professionals from great ones. His sessions often feel more like mentoring conversations than lectures.
How We Actually Teach This Stuff
Most financial education feels disconnected from reality. We've designed our approach around the messy, uncertain world where financial decisions actually get made. Our instructors don't just explain what should happen—they prepare you for what does happen.
