Hi! My name is Gabriel Del Real and I received my B.S. in Mathematics from Arizona State University in 2023, where I developed a strong foundation in analysis, probability, and problem-solving. In Spring 2026, I will begin pursuing my M.S. in Artificial Intelligence at Johns Hopkins University, with an expected graduation in Spring 2028. As I continue my academic journey, I’m exploring the field of quantitative finance—particularly how mathematical reasoning, statistical modeling, and machine learning can be applied to financial markets. This blog documents my learning process, projects, and the ideas I encounter along the way as I build toward a career at the intersection of mathematics, AI, and quantitative research.
