About

I am a Rates Strategist, at one of the largest proprietary trading firms, focused on G7 STIRs and Bonds. The role requires me to scan money markets, monetary policy, and the international macroeconomic landscape for fractures in cross-asset/currency pricing. My objective on LinkedIn is to share thoughts, mostly on interest rate markets, and to connect with and learn from people who have walked this road before. Other than markets, I am interested in travel, food, and plants. Whether you are a recruiter looking for someone passionate about interest rates/global macro, a senior with advice, or a junior with questions, I invite you to connect with me, to explore the possibilities that begin as we connect.
