Hi, I'm Michael!
I study math, economics and finance at Wingate University.
I'm interested in applied ML research, computational finance, and optimization methods, and I'm currently working under the supervision of Dr. Lisa Schwartz on classical vs deep learning factor extraction models for high-dimensional portfolio risk management.
Outside of academics & research, I enjoy building practical systems & models for actuarial risk analytics, computer vision, and finance, especially for projects involving risk modeling and analysis, portfolio backtesting & optimization, signal-based trading, and predictive analytics for financial data.
When I have time to spare, I play soccer, game occassionally, or practice music. I love to trying out new food and currently on a personal food-tasting adventure across Charlotte; always on the lookout for great spots.
Based between Charlotte and San Francisco. This summer, I'll be in Hartford, CT working out of the Aetna HQ as an actuarial intern.
Feel free to reach out to me at mi.gyimadu430 [at] wingate [dot] edu.
