Biography

My name is Sisi Tang.

I studied Olympic Math from my childhood and won several prizes in all kinds of mathematics competitions. I graduated from Fudan University Math Department (ranks 2nd in China). I am one of the top students of my year and received 1st and 2nd prizes of Honor of Excellent Students and People’s Scholarship. I then received 10 PhD offers with full scholarships from top universities in the U.S. including JHU, GIT, and UNC-Chapel Hill. I finally chose Indiana University Bloomington(IUB) because my advisor (Roger Temam) is a world-famous mathematician. I earned my Ph.D. degree from the Department of Mathematics of IUB (GPA 3.9+) and a Master‘s degree in Statistics during my Ph.D. program. I am a master of hardcore techniques in Stochastic Analysis and partial differential equation (PDE) and have published 3 papers in the area of Stochastic PDE. I am also very familiar with common Numerical PDE methods.

I started my career as a quantitative analyst after school. My first job was at Jefferies mainly supporting Rates business (linear and exotics) on all kinds of quantitative works. I am currently working at Citi supporting a multi-asset desk whose major exposure is on Rates and FX. My product knowledge is mainly on Rates. I also handle Equity and Credit models.

I have a very solid background in programming. I have been programming intensively since 2009 using C++, Python, R, and Matlab in school and work. I also did several projects in Java, SQL, and Stata.

I am FINRA-licensed in the Finance industry: SIE, Series 7, Series 63.
