Colleague Testimonials

Derek worked for me as a portfolio manager for over 10 years and is the best team member I have ever worked with. He handles himself with integrity and professionalism at all times, while contributing a strong intellectual curiosity.

In addition, Derek’s mathematical intellect combined with his healthy charisma is not as common in finance as some might think. Derek is truly a stand-up person that would be a strong addition to any employer or team and I fully recommend him.


I had the pleasure of working with Derek Oglesby, for nearly a decade. In that time, Derek consistently demonstrated a strong skill set underpinned by his mathematic and financial quantitative credentials. During that time Derek served as the lead manager for quantitative research activity to serve the portfolio management team, for which I served as the senior portfolio manager from 2006-2014.

Derek had consistently impressed the team with his ability to distill and integrate complex research and portfolio strategies into easy, ready to use trading and research modules with capabilities to interface with larger software platforms.

I highly recommend Derek for any endeavor he pursues as he would be an invaluable asset for any group he chooses to partner with.
