Hey there! I’m Eric Chen.

I’m from Wisconsin, studied Operations Research and Financial Engineering at Princeton, and am working in Chicago now. Take a look at the bookshelf to see what I’ve been reading recently. Find me on Twitter and LinkedIn.1

How It’s Made

This site is built on Jekyll, originally forked from Poole, and hosted on GitHub Pages. The Git repository for the website lives here. I write all posts in Visual Studio Code. Math equations are formatted with MathJax.

The site’s favicon is an homage to the brown Zune 30, Microsoft’s deeply flawed yet iconic iPod competitor and my favorite electronic device. Mine was white, but brown makes a better logo.
