Experience
I work as a quantitative researcher on the buy side, finding new sources of alpha and designing relative value models and trading strategies around them. I've dealt with practically all the major asset classes.
Presently at Lord Abbett, one of the oldest asset management firms to still actively innovate and push the envelope.
Previously at Parkcentral Capital Management, the hedge fund division of Perot Investments.
Education
PhD in Economics from Princeton University.
SB in Economics from MIT.
I live in New York City with my wife and daughter.

What are some belief systems of fundamentalist Jews This question sounds like it is attempting to solicit offensive information. If not, can you be more specific as to who are the "Jewish fundamentalists" you refer to? In Judaism, there is no one homogeneous group that could accurately be described with this label, but rather multiple groups with often conflicting positions on the political and social questions of the day. |

Reconciling the evidence for the Uncertainty Principle with belief in an omniscient G-d @AdamRedwine I think logic is in a completely different category, and while I personally believe God is bound by logic, I think this is more a statement about our own capacity for logic than about God. |

Reconciling the evidence for the Uncertainty Principle with belief in an omniscient G-d @AdamRedwine The way I see it, that still does not present a problem. God is not part of the universe, for He created the universe. It does not matter that it is unknowable to people or animals or anything else in the universe, God is not "included" in the universe because God created the universe. The answer is, ultimately, either one you are instantly satisfied with or you will never be satisfied with any answer. |

Is hamsa allowed? The pagan origins are "theories" according to wikipedia, while the true origin is unknown. If the origin truly is Islam and Middle Eastern (non-Jewish) culture, is it still forbidden? |

Why do we call it “candle-lighting” time? @WAF, well, the question is, why not call it something like "just to be safe Shabbat start time" or "recommended Shabbat start time" since, after all, you can still light candles before or after that time? |

Why do some women light additional shabbat candles for the past weeks they didn't light? @Alex your comment seems answer-worthy. Thanks. |
