About

Hi! Right now, I’m involved with all things product at odr.com, an enterprise SaaS startup that develops software for conflict and dispute resolution. I’m also working on creating a social/consumer app that reimagines how people interact with each other and their memories together (wip, stealth).

Previously, I worked at Goldman Sachs as a quant strategist, where I researched and built frameworks to model the shape of volatility surfaces for equity derivatives. Before that, I studied applied math and history at Columbia University (CC’23) and also completed a master’s degree in financial engineering (SEAS’25).

Some topics that I find especially interesting (in no particular order) include product management, human-centered design, statistical modeling, startups, all kinds of music/art (especially jazz), basketball, semi-fermented teas, historical fiction, card games, DotA2, and cooking.

I grew up in the SF Bay Area (#westcoastbestcoast) and currently call NYC home. I’m always happy to talk — please feel free to get in touch at celeryleon@gmail.com.
