PhD Candidate in Finance at The George Washington University

Welcome to my website! I am a fifth year PhD candidate in Finance at The George Washington University.

I enjoy leveraging data science approaches for elevating my research in the Finance area. I study the behavioral biases of Bitcoin traders by generating my dataset through the Application Programming Interfaces (API) of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges around the world, and by performing sentiment analysis benefiting from Natural Language Processing (NLP) of social media. This research can be found at:
