Zachary

I have been teaching at New York University in the Finance Department since 2008, where I teach economics, finance, statistics, and psychology / behavioral econ courses.

I did undergrad at the University of Pennsylvania, Wharton School, and grad school at Harvard.

I spend most of my time doing financial and strategic consulting to businesses and non-profits, or teaching at NYU, but I enjoy helping students on an individual basis, as well. Please don`t hesitate to reach out if I might be able to help.

I have lots of experience helping students that need a bit more help, from undergrads to experienced professionals with decades of industry experience. I`m happy to help with subjects in the areas of: finance (e.g. corporate, valuation, securities, trading, derivatives), economics (e.g. micro or macro), business math, stat, forecasting, statistical analysis or quantitative modeling, psychology, business ethics, behavioral econ, social neuroscience or neuroeconomics, decision science, management strategy, economic history. I have experience teaching in all of them, almost all in proper university classes, and consult in these areas on a daily basis.

As a former hedge fund and bank portfolio manager, I do active consulting on areas related to trading, risk management, the alternative asset industry, quantitative strategies, fixed income and derivative products, and other related topics. I also develop custom quantitative / systematic strategies for clients.

I also do many other forms of business consulting, usually related to quantitative analysis. These range from sales projects and revenue forecasting, to quantitative legal analysis, financial and quantitative elements to business contracts and deals, and various forms of sophisticated statistical analysis for business and investing applications. My clients are both small and large: from firms with only one or two partners, start-ups, small and mid-size, to Fortune 500 industrials and major investment banks across many different industries.
