<p>-Quantitative Trading & Research:
Started a firm which uses research conducted to build currency trading models.

<p>-Hedge Fund: Currently interning as an assistant trader at a quantitative hedge fund here in NYC. Functions include taking classes and doing some misc. work that needs to be completed after hours. </p>

<p>BTW should I even mention my performance at this mutual fund managing contest? Basically this company has around 50000-60000 different portfolios which are managed and are ranked every month on several intervals. I have been doing this for around a year now (well I did stop from february to may as can be seen by the performance). </p>
