Hello, I am David Sheffet!

Some words about me

I look at things from a different angle and have a fire that drives me to progress. I am a Bentley University Graduate with an Economics – Marketing major. I was a member of the Bentley Football Team and was the first member of the TD Ameritrade Crypto Team. These experiences allowed me to become adept at working with others in stressful, time-sensitive situations. I am hoping to work doing predictive analytics or with the crypto space.
