Felipe Jaramillo-Penagos

Financial engineering and mathematics at Duke (B.S.E. Risk, Data, and Financial Engineering, December 2026). I build statistical and computational models for markets and risk.

Now

  • Capstone research on how macroeconomic shocks propagate through financial systems, advised by Dr. Mark Borsuk and Dr. Peng Sun
  • Probability-distribution modules for Multivarious, Prof. Henri P. Gavin's open-source Python library for probability, optimization, and stochastic modeling

Research

Implied volatility surface
Modeling Market Geometry
Implied volatility · PCA · QuantConnect · 2025

Fits daily implied-volatility surfaces, decomposes their changes into level, skew, and curvature, and trades that momentum with delta-neutral straddles and strangles.

Paper · Repository
Mean-variance efficient frontier and capital market line
Modern Portfolio Optimization Approaches
Mean-variance · Risk parity · QuantConnect · 2026

Tests mean-variance and risk parity over 18 years of walk-forward rebalancing on seven ETFs, and proposes a hybrid that caps each asset's share of portfolio risk.

Paper · Repository

Projects

Quantitative Risk Management Covariance repair, VaR and ES, risk parity, attribution, and option pricing in Python
Loan Default Prediction A credit-risk pipeline built around an imbalanced dataset

Tools: Python (NumPy, pandas, SciPy, scikit-learn, PyTorch), MATLAB, C++, Git, Bloomberg, LSEG
