He holds a B.S. in Finance with a Concentration in Financial Technology from the University of South Florida, earned in May 2026. Steven’s career interests center on quantitative research and systematic trading, and he is open to a range of relevant quantitative roles. He gained relevant industry experience as a Financial Technology Analyst intern at Bank of America, where he was exposed to the intersection of finance and technology in a large institutional setting. Outside of coursework, Steven has pursued independent quantitative projects to deepen his technical foundation, including a probability of default credit risk model built on the “Give Me Some Credit” dataset and participation in the Optiver Trading at the Close competition. Originally from the Tampa Bay area of Florida, Steven is drawn to the rigorous, mathematically grounded approach to markets that the MFM program offers, and he looks forward to building the quantitative skill set needed to pursue a career in systematic trading.
