Experience
I am a professional offering tutoring services in the fields of applied statistics, theoretical statistics, probability, stochastic processes, econometrics, biostatistics, actuarial science, optimization and finance. I hold a PhD in Statistics and a graduate level degree in Finance from Stanford University. During my 5 years at Stanford I taught more than 10 undergraduate, master's level and PhD level statistics and probability courses. After graduation, for more than a decade, I have been working in the financial industry focusing on projects pertaining to data mining, time series analysis, computational statistics, financial engineering and systematic trading. Equally importantly, I have tutored students and business professionals in all areas of statistics and quantitative finance for the last 11 years. I have consulted researchers in medical, social and economic sciences regarding statistical aspects of their research for 13 years. I help with exams, assignments, presentations, literature review, theoretical research, programming projects and data analysis in any of the major statistical packages (R, RStudio, Matlab, Stata, SPSS / AMOS, Python, SAS, JMP, Minitab, EViews). As my experience shows, I work with all types of clients, from college students to full professors in other fields. Typically, I tutor via videoconferencing and screen sharing in Skype (hourly rate; 2 hours minimum per session) or submit the complete analysis via e-mail (fixed price). The effective hourly rate starts at $60 per hour and increases with the level of material...
