I’m in my second year at NYU. I began independent research on financial markets in 2025, and this summer I was a Solution Engineer Intern at Microsoft in Shanghai. The projects below are from 2026; each links to a short page with more detail.
Research

Near-high signals in crypto futures
paper trading
A pre-registered signal search across 55 crypto futures; not yet validated.
-
Auditing my own backtests
ongoing
Four accepted results withdrawn; each flaw became an automated check.
-
Prediction markets research
ongoing
Pre-registered questions on Polymarket and Kalshi prices: most closed, four still open.
-
Closing-line value in football betting
closed
Beating one bookmaker’s opening odds: a pre-registered test on 14 new leagues found no edge.
-
Stock perpetual futures
study closed
Weekend moves in stock perpetuals did not predict Monday’s session.
Software

Finding highlights in long videos

A travel guide organized around routes: seven routes, 103 stops.
Currently
Head of Operations at NYU Blockchain Lab (since September 2026).
