Financial technology software manager, architect and developer. Technical Architect for the Merchant Bank at Goldman Sachs during the Financial Crisis and Technology Vice President for the Investment Bank at the Royal Bank of Scotland during the Eurozone Crisis. Had stints at hedge fund investment firms Ivy Asset Management and K2 Advisors. Graduated from Stanford University in the late 90's (improbably had Marissa Meyer as a teaching assistant in a computer science class). My investing style is focused on swing trading major asset classes (stocks, commodities & countries) via ETFs and leveraged ETFs using macro-economic research, technical and volatility analysis. I am happiest when I can successfully spot and trade a major turn in an asset class against the madness of crowds. Currently running VIXContango.com, a site dedicated to real-time analysis of the near-term VIX future curve and more broadly to the study of aggregation of volatility expectations across time... which holds the key to timing the market successfully!less
