As a dedicated Portfolio Manager at Morgan Stanley, I have successfully managed substantial assets across diverse portfolios, developing innovative Python-based automation tools that enhance operational efficiency. My experience includes constructing optimized equity index portfolios for over 1500 accounts, totaling more than $4 billion in assets under management. I lead a talented team of nine, focusing on creating applications that streamline portfolio management processes, ultimately driving cross-team operational efficiency.

Prior to my role at Morgan Stanley, I managed a $7 billion Hedge Fund portfolio at AON T, where I employed advanced statistical analysis and scenario planning to construct high-performing investment strategies. My expertise in quantitative analysis and risk management has enabled me to deliver tax-efficient investment strategies and comprehensive performance reports, enhancing transparency and decision-making for stakeholders. I am committed to pushing boundaries in investment management and aspire to transition into a quantitative developer role, where I can further leverage my passion for Python coding and data analysis.
