I am a self-taught Data Scientist. My focus is on the Python machine learning and deep learning ecosystem. I am building out my portfolio while looking for a full-time job or consulting opportunities in Data Science. I am also a Derivatives Trading & Risk Consultant (MBA, Certified FRM). I provide consulting services to clients on financial derivatives and risk management topics. My work experience includes the SEC (Financial Analyst, Economist), KPMG (Senior Manager), NERA (Senior Derivatives Analyst), and Crescat Capital (External Risk Management Consultant). In 2021, I am taking a fast.ai deep learning course, and looking for ways to use deep learning tools in finance and economics.

I received an MBA degree from the University of Chicago, Booth School of Business, and a Certified Financial Risk Manager (FRM) designation from GARP. I received a B.A. degree from Mount Holyoke College, with a major in economics and minors in physics and music. I received a high honors in economics based on my research project & senior thesis, Innovation in the Computer Industry: with Case Studies.
