// About

Science. Finance. Design. AI.

I bring a rare combination of quantitative rigor, financial expertise, and design thinking to AI consulting. With a background spanning astrophysics research at NASA, prime brokerage at Goldman Sachs, foreign exchange at JP Morgan, and analytics leadership in consulting, I understand how organizations actually work — and where AI can genuinely move the needle.

I help companies cut through the AI hype and implement practical, high-impact solutions in operations, reporting, and data systems. No buzzwords. Just results.

// Case Studies

01 Hedge Fund — Portfolio Reporting

Automating Portfolio Reporting for a Multi-Strategy Hedge Fund

Challenge

A mid-sized hedge fund was producing daily portfolio reports manually — a process taking analysts 3+ hours each morning, prone to errors, and leaving portfolio managers waiting for data when markets were already moving.

Approach

Audited the full reporting workflow and identified key data sources — prime brokerage feeds, internal risk systems, Bloomberg. Built an automated pipeline that ingested, reconciled, and normalized data nightly, generating reports with natural language summaries of portfolio movements, risk exposures, and attribution.

Outcome

Reporting time reduced from 3 hours to under 10 minutes. Portfolio managers received actionable morning briefs before market open. Analysts were freed to focus on analysis rather than data wrangling.

02 Family Office — FX & Multi-Asset Reporting

AI-Driven FX Exposure Reporting for a Global Family Office

Challenge

A family office with multi-currency, multi-asset holdings had no unified view of FX exposure across portfolios. Risk reporting was fragmented across spreadsheets maintained by different teams, making consolidated analysis slow and unreliable.

Approach

Designed a centralized data model consolidating positions across asset classes and currencies. Built an AI layer that calculated real-time FX exposure, generated plain-language risk summaries, and flagged threshold breaches automatically — replacing manual weekend reconciliation.

Outcome

The investment team gained a live, consolidated view of currency exposure for the first time. Weekend reconciliation was eliminated. Principals received automated weekly briefs with actionable hedging considerations derived directly from current positions.

03 Consulting Firm — Data & Analytics

Building an AI Analytics Layer for a Management Consulting Firm

Challenge

A consulting firm was sitting on years of client engagement data, project outcomes, and market research — but had no way to synthesize it. Consultants spent hours rebuilding analysis from scratch for each new engagement.

Approach

Designed and implemented a retrieval-augmented AI system that indexed the firm's full knowledge base and allowed consultants to query it conversationally. Built automated insight reports summarizing relevant past engagements, benchmark data, and methodology frameworks on demand.

Outcome

Consultants cut research and prep time by over 50% per engagement. The firm's institutional knowledge became accessible and actionable for the first time. New hires onboarded significantly faster with AI-assisted context on past work.

04 Metropolitan Museum of Art — Data & Cultural Engagement

The Hip Hop Project — Making 200,000 Artworks Accessible Through Rap Lyrics

Challenge

The Met's digital archive of 200,000+ works was largely inaccessible to younger, diverse audiences — particularly young people from nearby neighborhoods who had never engaged with the museum. The data existed; the entry point didn't.

Approach

Conducted ethnographic research to identify 13 culturally influential rappers. Built a system integrating the Rap Genius API and the Met's own digital API, using words from rap lyrics as keyword searches through the archive — generating curated, personalized "tours" of the collection through the lens of hip hop. Created for the Met Media Lab.

Outcome

Demonstrated how combining open cultural datasets with an unexpected interface layer can unlock entirely new audiences. The project launched at rappersdelight.nyc — a model for how institutions with large, underutilized data archives can use API integration to drive discovery and engagement.

05 Scientific Research — Data Visualization & Urban Systems

Holobiont Urbanism — Mapping and Visualizing New York City's Microbiome

Challenge

Cutting-edge microbiome research from the Mason Lab at Weill Cornell was generating rich scientific data about the microbial life of NYC — but it was invisible to the public and locked in academic formats. How do you make complex biological data not just understandable, but viscerally felt?

Approach

Led design and visualization for a cross-disciplinary collaboration with MIT Media Lab, Weill Cornell, The Cooper Union, and the Extrapolation Factory. Combined DNA sequencing data collected via honeybees with thermal imaging of NYC streets and web-based 3D rendering to create a live data art installation — reframing the city as a biological superstructure.

Outcome

Featured in Wired, National Geographic, and Creative Applications. Results contributed to peer-reviewed publications in environmental microbiology. Demonstrated that rigorous scientific data, when designed with intention, can shift public perception at scale.
