About Candidate
Hello, I’m Gianluca Scola, a motivated 22-year-old graduate of Wits University, where I earned a Bachelor of Commerce with a specialisation in Finance and a background in law. Realising my profound passion for finance, I am currently embarking on an Honours degree in Finance to deepen my understanding of this captivating field. During the December break, I dedicated a significant portion of my time to preparing for the CFA Level 1 examination which was self-funded. This pursuit not only reflects my commitment to refining my expertise but also serves as a testament to my fervent interest in the subject.
Continuously seeking opportunities for growth and advancement, I am presently engaged in completing the Python practice skills module for CFA alongside my academic endeavours, with the aim of enhancing my proficiency in coding and programming languages.
