About

I am a Quantitative Trader with a robust background in both TradFi and DeFi markets, specializing in Crypto trading strategies. With experience in HFT strategies and a strong foundation in market microstructure, I have successfully developed and executed strategies in the domains of Market Making, and funding rate arbitrage. My previous work involves in-depth analysis of order book dynamics, impact modelling, and transaction cost analysis to enhance trading efficiency and performance. Passionate about the evolving landscape of DeFi, I am keen to leverage my skills in algorithmic trading and quantitative analysis to drive innovation and efficiency in financial markets.
