I build tested data tools for markets — and I compete in them.
Selected work
Market-data operations toolkit
Classifies vendor and exchange notices, resolves everything they touch through a typed dependency graph, and routes each one for review with an explicit confidence and escalation rule — then scores its own output rather than assuming it. Live, interactive demo over a synthetic estate.
IMC Prosperity 4 — global trading competition
Built and tested strategies across market making, order-book microstructure, time-series analysis, backtesting, and game-theoretical decision-making, over a multi-round global event.
Fullhouse poker AI — international championship
An adaptive bot for 6-max no-limit hold’em, evaluated across 10M+ simulated hands, 100+ agent variants, and 30+ custom opponent models.
Astronomy data project — national informatics competition
Analysed Milky Way stellar structure with Gaia DR3 and ADQL under PhD mentorship, as a high-school computer-science research project.
