About

Currently working as a quantitative analyst at a Big Five bank in Canada. I work in the Treasury group providing various insights and performing data analysis on whatever comes down the pike. Day to day work allows me to use some university obtained mathematical knowledge with self taught programming skills.

Outside of work hours, I tend to work on something I find interesting, like my horse racing project. From a programming perspective, I typically use Python for most needs. I cut my teeth with Fortran. Have experience with C++ and shell scripting. Gravitate towards a full stack developer/engineer title.
