This site is meant to act as a repository for some of my professional and academic work.
Professionally, I have worked in a variety of roles including research, strategy development, trading, sales/marketing, and portfolio management. I am
broadly interested in economics and finance, but am especially fond of quantitative finance (see for example my articles on optimal portfolio sizing or derivative pricing and popular option strategies) and geopolitical/global macro events (see for example my article on changing Fed policy tools). You can find links to some of my writings in the “Finance/Economics” menu above.
To support my professional responsibilities, I utilize a few different software programs and coding languages. For statistics, data science, and data visualization, I am most comfortable using R, though also know Python, MATLAB, Visual Basic, and Tableau. For the day-to-day aspects of my job, I am especially capable in Excel, where I am one of the leading contributors on the question-and-answer site Stack Overflow. You can see selected scripts in each of the aforementioned languages, complete with comments and explanations, in the “Programming” menu above.
Academically, I am interested in everything mathematics, but particularly algebra. You can find links to some of my notes and papers in the “Maths” menu above. The pdf versions of many of the papers should be clickable, with the accompanying LaTeX files available upon request.
