Finn Case
@finncase
Quantitative economics student at UCLA researching AI infrastructure economics and modeling how power markets shape data center competitiveness.
What I'm looking for
At Kelvolta, I contribute to data analytics for an energy technology company, including data pipeline development, exploratory analysis, and data visualization. My work also supports process documentation, database development, and exploration of the company's future analytical capabilities.
At UC Santa Barbara, I developed a quantitative research framework for how electricity markets, grid constraints, infrastructure ecosystems, and community impacts may shape AI infrastructure deployment. I built state-level competitiveness models, tested ranking robustness with 10,000 Monte Carlo simulations, and analyzed power strategies and community impacts.
At RMR Wealth Builders, I supported portfolio operations, trade execution, and performance reporting across client accounts, and I hold the Series 65 license. I also built and operate Malibu Delivery Service LLC, where I track business KPIs and manage budgeting, cash flow, and daily operations.
