Work History

Quantatitive Analyst

VCRED Trade
05.2022 - Current
  • Modeled and reconstructed liquidity provision payoffs in concentrated liquidity market makers using covered option calls and straddle option portfolios
  • Wrote robust statistical testing procedures (Monte Carlo Permutation Test, Granger Causality) to extract mid-high frequency market-making signals
  • Prototyped an industrial-grade data ETL pipeline (real-time trades, L2 orderbooks, and candles) using Asyncio, ArcticDB and Kafka

Machine Learning Researcher

Los Alamos National Laboratory
05.2021 - 05.2022
  • Wrote a Bayesian machine learning surrogate model that uses discrete fracture network (DFN) models to model gas flow through fractures of subsurface rocks
  • Model outputs predictions that are within 20-30% of high-fidelity DFN simulation results while reduce the computational time by multiple orders of magnitude
  • Identified as the first author in https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.03416, submitted to Computers and Geosciences

Data Scientist (L3 / L5)

Starboard Networks
06.2021 - 04.2022
