Better models.
Clearer decisions.

Advanced financial modeling, investment research, and hands-on data science. I help you understand the drivers, test the assumptions, and build a practical path forward.

Financial & investment modeling

Put your assumptions to work.

From operating plans to investment theses, get a model you can inspect, challenge, and use.

Business planning & capital decisions

Advanced Financial Modeling

Connect revenue, costs, and cash flow to the decisions ahead. Understand how growth plans hold up when the assumptions change.

  • Revenue, margin, and cash-flow forecasts
  • Scenario analysis, sensitivity testing, and Monte Carlo simulation
  • Capital allocation, unit economics, and runway planning
Explore scope & deliverables

Example questions: How much can we invest in growth? Which assumptions drive our cash needs? What changes in a downside scenario?

Potential deliverables: A driver-based financial model, base/upside/downside scenarios, sensitivity analysis, and a walkthrough of the assumptions and results.

Working format: Spreadsheet, Python, R, or an interactive application, selected around your team's workflow.

Custom scope Pricing and timeline agreed after discovery.

Valuation & quantitative research

Investment Modeling

Turn an investment thesis into a testable framework. Examine valuation, portfolio tradeoffs, and the uncertainty behind expected outcomes.

  • Discounted cash flow (DCF) and valuation scenarios
  • Portfolio optimization, factor exposures, and risk analysis
  • Strategy backtesting, stress tests, and drawdown analysis
Explore scope & deliverables

Example questions: What assumptions support this valuation? How sensitive is a portfolio to a market shock? Does a strategy hold up out of sample?

Potential deliverables: A valuation or portfolio model, reproducible research, scenario comparisons, and a report on methodology, risks, and limitations.

Research design: Evaluate data quality, transaction costs, and backtest bias so historical results can be interpreted in context.
