Studying finance,
passionate about markets.

I'm a Banking & FinTech student at UDST in Doha. I focus on investment banking and understanding how financial markets really work.

Last year, I completed JPMorgan's investment banking program. I also tutor high school algebra and have translated TED Talks into Uzbek that 60,000+ people have watched. I'm on the Amiri Scholarship here at UDST.

When I'm not studying or working on finance projects, I'm hiking, playing chess, or coding.

About

A bit more about who I am.

Jasurbek Turaev

I'm a Banking & FinTech student at UDST, focusing on investment banking. I'm interested in how financial markets work and how technology is changing finance.

I grew up in Uzbekistan, where I developed a passion for problem-solving through math competitions and running. That competitive mindset carried over when I discovered finance. What started as curiosity about how money moves turned into a genuine interest in investment banking, valuation models, and market dynamics.

I completed JPMorgan's investment banking program, which gave me hands-on experience with financial modeling and deal analysis. Currently, I tutor high school students in algebra online, helping them build the same analytical foundation that led me to finance. I've also translated over 35 TED Talks into Uzbek, making educational content accessible to my community back home—those videos have now reached more than 60,000 people.

I'm on the Amiri Scholarship at UDST, which is a tremendous opportunity and responsibility. Being a freshman here means I'm at the beginning of a long journey, but I'm excited about where it's heading. My goal is to work in investment banking, ideally in mergers and acquisitions or corporate finance, where I can apply both technical skills and strategic thinking.

Outside of academics, I stay active through hiking and chess. I also enjoy coding—mostly small projects to automate things or experiment with new ideas. These hobbies keep me balanced and remind me that problem-solving can take many forms.
