Benoît Zhou

I am a quantitative researcher working on options at Citadel Securities. I graduated from Stanford University and Ecole Centrale Paris with degrees in Applied Mathematics and studied Mathematics and Physics at Lycée Louis-le-Grand in Paris. I also spent some time at Uber in San Francisco on machine learning to build better pricing algorithms.

I enjoy teaching very much and was a teaching assistant at Stanford for CS224N: Natural Language Processing with Deep Learning, CS221: Artificial Intelligence, MS&E135: Networks, MS&E235: Network Analytics, and MS&E201: Dynamic Systems.

I am deeply passionate about music. I hold a Diplôme d'études musicales from the Conservatoire de Paris, play several instruments, and enjoy sharing videos on my YouTube channel. Here is one of my piano videos.
