Building Bespoke Solutions for a Complex World
When I founded Recondite Capital, it was an expression of my ambition to explore opening and managing my own investment advisory after years in Manhattan managing money. Yet, like many ventures, life had its own plans.
Shortly after launching, I found myself immersed in the University of Chicago’s Financial Mathematics program, a transformative period that deepened my understanding of quantitative finance and gave me tools to tackle complex financial problems. From there, I took an unexpected detour—building Tincre, an ad technology firm that has grown into a successful business where I’ve led software development and strategy.
Over the years, Tincre has honed my ability to build scalable, impactful software. But now, I find myself drawn back to Recondite with renewed purpose. The timing feels right. My ongoing work as a teaching assistant for the Financial Mathematics program’s FX Derivatives and Options course has kept me engaged with institutional finance and valuation, while Tincre has sharpened my focus on delivering real-world scalable software solutions.
Recondite Capital is now entering its next chapter, centered on three pillars:
These pillars reflect not only my expertise but also the gaps I’ve seen in the market—the need for tailored tools, deep quantitative insight, and rigorous valuation frameworks.
At its core, Recondite is about crafting tools that solve specific, complex problems. Whether it’s automating data pipelines, developing analytics dashboards, or creating proprietary financial models, we believe in building solutions that are as unique as the problems they address. Off-the-shelf software often falls short when nuance and precision are required—this is where we thrive.
I’ve always been fascinated by the “why” behind markets. From macroeconomic trends to the microstructure of trading, research is the foundation upon which sound decision-making is built. At Recondite, we aim to leverage quantitative techniques and data-driven insights to tackle the unanswered questions that shape investment and risk management strategies.
Valuing assets—whether a startup, a complex derivative, or a distressed investment—requires more than formulas and models. It demands perspective. At Recondite, we bring both technical rigor and practical experience to the table, ensuring that valuations reflect reality and provide actionable insights.
Refocusing Recondite is not just about ambition; it’s about aligning with what I’m passionate about and what I’m uniquely equipped to offer. Whether you’re an institution, a startup, or an investor, my goal is to transform obscurity into value—delivering clarity in a world that often resists it.
This is only the beginning of Recondite’s next chapter. I look forward to reconnecting with old colleagues, forging new partnerships, and tackling the challenges that lie ahead. Let’s get to work.
