Ex-Citadel L/S Equity Associate and Quantitative Analyst at Millennium (energy trading pod). Founder of Traders@Berkeley, one of the largest student trading organizations in the country. Over the course of my own career I have interviewed at nearly every major trading shop, fund and bank, across both systematic and fundamental strategies. Going through the process myself gave me the expertise to understand how they're structured, who the good PMs are, and how exactly to get your resume in front of the right people. I've also worked many different recruiting agencies. I know which ones have genuine relationships with specific teams and PMs, and which ones will spam your resume across the street before you're ready. Since agencies have exclusive rights to your introduction, it is vital to choose the right recruiters, and I will help you navigate them as well. Whether you're still in school, breaking in from another field, or looking to switch shops or PMs, I can help you position yourself correctly and make the most of every opportunity you get.

I’m a quantitative finance professional with deep experience in the proprietary trading world, where I’ve developed and managed successful strategies across global markets. I’ve worked closely with senior leadership and cross-functional teams, giving me a well-rounded perspective on both the research and business sides of trading. As a coach, I bring a practical, honest, and supportive approach—whether you're preparing for interviews, breaking into the quant space, or looking to grow in your current role. My goal is to help you build clarity, confidence, and direction in your quant journey.

As one of the Career Coaches at MSCF, I helped three cohorts of quant finance students achieve 100% internship rate and 95% received full-time offers by graduation. I partnered closely with early career teams & mid-level managers across hedge funds, asset managers, prop shops, investment banks, fintechs, and consulting firms to learn industry trends and which skills were in-demand. Now, I coach early-to-mid-career quants (and lots of career changers breaking into the field) to: - Clarify their career direction in quant and close the technical skill gap - Network and rebrand their resume/LinkedIn with confidence - Personalize their search strategy and interview style in a way that represents them best I work with all types of clients, including many who are international, first-generation, neurodivergent, women, or LGBTQ+. If you're looking for someone to help you navigate the full recruitment cycle, refine your message, and adapt when life throws you off track, I’d love to work with you!
