My research revolves around two major areas: corporate wellness, with the focus on behavioral impact on performance and work-life harmony, and cybersecurity-related market anomalies, shadow trading and data breach risks. I conduct analysis using game theoretic modeling, behavioral finance tools, and advanced statistical methods, using a combination of statistical languages and software, including Python, R, SAS, Stata, and other tools to increase efficiency.
