Hi, I'm

Gael Berlanga Boemare

Engineering Student at Cambridge. Interested in entrepreneurship and quant research.

About

I'm a final-year MEng Engineering student at the University of Cambridge (Downing College), graduating in 2026. My master's research focuses on Bayesian inference for non-linear state-space models.

I've interned in quant trading at Da Vinci Derivatives and in data science roles involving satellite imagery, computer vision, and epidemiological analysis. I'm passionate about building things at the intersection of maths, code, and real-world data.
