I have worked for a variety of companies in
the financial and medical fields, including several of the leading financial
firms (Morgan Stanley, American Express / Lehman Brothers, Millennium
Partners). Since 1997 I have been working on Quantitative Trading
Strategies. In 2009 I helped found Aristarc Capital, a hedge fund
specializing in Japanese Equity Market Neutral Strategies, where I served as
the Chief of Quantitative Research, supervising a team comprised of
quantitative analysts (PhD’s in statistics, Business, etc.) and software
engineers to deliver the “signal” that drives a real-time trading strategy.
As a developer, I have extensive experience
coding in a statistical/analytical environment (R, S-Plus). Early in my
career I coded extensively in other languages and developed database
applications.
In the medical field, I have helped to
develop medical instruments and measurement algorithms. I am listed as
an inventor on US and international patents, both current and pending.
My current project is Outseeker, founded this year to deploy
new algorithms I have developed for local search.
