MSc Finance candidate with strong quantitative skills and hands-on experience in financial analysis, valuation, and portfolio management.
Oslo, Norway
Professional summary
I combine financial theory with computational tools to understand markets. My work spans derivatives pricing, portfolio optimization, and machine learning for financial applications — from building risk engines to exploring quantum computing for option pricing. Currently completing my MSc Finance thesis at BI Norwegian Business School on the relationship between passive investing growth and active management alpha.
Academic background
Personal and academic work in quantitative finance and technology
Examines whether the growth of passive investing (from ~6% to 51% of U.S. mutual fund AUM, 1996–2025) is associated with changes in aggregate active manager alpha. Uses ~29,800 active and ~3,700 passive funds from Morningstar Direct with CAPM, Fama–French 3- and 5-factor models. Documents a specification pitfall in fee-spread controls, finds no robust linear association between passive share and alpha under multifactor models, and provides exploratory evidence of stress-conditional effects on alpha during periods of high passive concentration.
