About

My name is Xiaolun (pronounced as shee-aw loon). I am a senior quant strategist at Cargill, and have worked as fundamental commodity analyst and systematic trader before. 

A proud graduate from the University of Chicago, I am an economist and computer scientist by training, and a landscape photographer by passion (you can find my 500px account on the left navigation). 

I intend to use this blog to write about ideas that won't fit into a few Tweets. Topics might include commodities, systematic trading, Command & Conquer, book reviews, movie reviews, and fun projects I worked on. I intend to write in both English and Chinese. 

Use the link on the left navigation to find my social media accounts and send me DMs. I don't speak a lot on Twitter or post at all on Instagram (as of March 2021) but I do check them regularly.
