Institutional Research Analyst | Housing Finance & Digital Assets | Insights cited by Delphi Digital & a16z Crypto
I am an institutional research and policy analyst with experience spanning financial services, housing finance, fintech, digital assets, and public policy.
My work focuses on analyzing complex financial and economic issues, combining quantitative data analysis with primary and secondary research to identify market trends, evaluate emerging technologies, and translate complex information into actionable insights.
Before moving into financial technology and digital-asset research, I spent nearly four years as a Research Analyst in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, where I authored 200+ research reports covering financial services, banking, digital payments, housing finance, financial regulation, taxation, and emerging technologies. I also have experience in mortgage finance, commercial real estate, and real estate transaction operations.
More recently, I worked as a Data Analyst at OurNetwork, producing research on stablecoins, digital payments, tokenized assets, blockchain infrastructure, and financial markets. My quantitative research and analytics have been cited by organizations including Delphi Digital and a16z Crypto.
I hold an M.S. in Management with a specialization in Financial Technology from the New Jersey Institute of Technology, and I use SQL, Python, APIs, and financial and blockchain data to support research and analysis.
I am particularly interested in institutional research, financial policy, development finance, financial markets, fintech, and the evolution of digital financial infrastructure.
