Hello and Welcome

This is the inaugural post on my new blog. I’ve set up this site to share thoughts, analyses, and explorations at the intersection of finance and health.

What to Expect

Future posts will cover topics including:

  • Data Analysis: Exploratory analyses and visualizations
  • Finance: Healthcare economics, risk modeling, and portfolio analysis
  • Health: Clinical data insights and health outcomes research
  • Technology: Tools and workflows for reproducible research

A Quick Example

One of the reasons I chose Quarto for this site is its ability to seamlessly integrate code and output. Here’s a simple example:

# A simple calculation
values <- c(10, 20, 30, 40, 50)
mean(values)
[1] 30

This makes it easy to share reproducible analyses directly in blog posts.

Stay Tuned

More content coming soon. Thanks for visiting!
