Every number here traces back to its source.

Avaneendra portrait

Published quantitative research, tested to failure before any result is trusted.

I'm an independent quantitative researcher with 11 published working papers. Every result comes with the code to reproduce it and a full record of the tests it had to pass first, including the ones designed to prove it wrong.

The work covers how markets actually move: market microstructure, funding stress, and how scheduled disclosures reprice risk. I test where a model breaks, not just where it holds.

01

Auditability is non-negotiable.

If a number cannot be traced from source to output, it does not belong in the decision loop.

02

Speed matters only with control.

Fast systems are useful only when their assumptions, constraints, and outputs stay explicit under stress.

03

Good tools get out of the way.

The best interface is the one that lets analysts focus on judgment instead of tool friction.
