Biography

Following God's will, pursuing my passions, and making a change in the world.

Over the last 3 years, Sigmund has set out with a goal to make a change in the world. Three years ago, as a student just entering Rundle College Senior High School Sigmund began investing in the stock market in joint accounts. Just shortly after at the age of 17 Sigmund began working for Tuscan Capital Management as a Vice President of a family-owned Calgary based company. At the age of 18, Sigmund took the initiative to trade multiple personal accounts on the market massing a decent profit over the course of the year. Today Sigmund is inspired by Bill Gates and his motive to bring change to the entire world. As a result, in April of 2020, Sigmund officially began working as a research advisor attempting to raise capital for Nia Technologies Inc. Nia Technologies Inc. is one company that Sigmund truly believes can bring change to developing nations via helping children walk with 3D printing technology. Due to his work at Tuscan and Nia, Sigmund was recently featured in the Top 100 Canadian Professionals Magazine of 2020. In the future, Sigmund aspires to obtain is CFA and work as an investment banker, before developing a global non-profit organization to help the underprivileged. If Sigmund could give one piece of advice to anyone he would tell them that "the world is nothing more than what you make it to be. Life is not about what one person can do, but what we as humans can do together."
