I am an entrepreneur from India. I run a gourmet foods manufacturing firm called Hankavalshier’s (we make nut butters, nut pastes, and chocolate spreads). I used to work with PayPal as a software developer. These days, I spend a good chunk of my time researching and developing mechanical trading strategies to deploy in the Indian stock markets.

Alternative Hypothesis is the intersection of Finance, Business, Technology, and Self-Mastery. The question that drives me is “How can I become a better trader and investor, do work that’s meaningful, and attain self-mastery in the process?”.
