Jeff Hamrick, Ph.D.

Assistant Professor, Finance and Analytics

Jeff is an Assistant Professor supporting both the Master of Science in
Analytics and Master of Science in Financial Analysis programs. He is a CFA
charterholder and a chartered Financial Risk Manager (FRM) and has
experience in hedge fund management and consulting for both financial services
and software engineering firms. Jeff's interests in "big data" stem mostly
from his interests in natural language processing, market microstructure (e.g.,
models of intraday asset prices), and sabermetrics (i.e., the use of statistical
and computational methodologies to study baseball). He earned a Ph.D. in
mathematics from Boston University in 2009, with concentrations in
nonparametric statistics and mathematical finance.
