A former NCAA ice hockey player and graduate of the University of Waterloo where he studied mathematics, economics, and finance, Shamsher soon found himself developing front end office tools on Wall Street to bridge the gap between technology and finance for investment banks and hedge funds, including Barclays Capital and Goldman Sachs.

A known thought leader who enjoys solving complex problems in unconventional ways, Shamsher’s experiential education in the financial markets, combined with an unflagging entrepreneurial vision, soon led to the founding of The Pisano Group, where mathematically driven deep learning technology could be applied to the creation of proprietary algorithms to navigate financial markets.
