Education

Interests

Before pursuing my PhD, I worked full-time as a junior trader in high-frequency cryptocurrency market making at Pulsar Trading (HK office), focusing on applying deep learning to reduce adverse selection. Prior to that, I interned as a summer analyst in equity derivatives and volatilty risk at Millennium Management (NYC office) in 2023. Through Prof. Ali Hirsa at Columbia IEOR, I conducted deep learning research for Wellington Management, as well as the ECB and EIB, during my Columbia MFE.

Research

Currently, I am working on continuous-time reinforcement learning theory and applications in finance.
