Huygens represents the evolution of robo advisors.

We are a tactical robo advisor and systematic investment management firm, catering to individual and institutional investors. Our strategies all employ our proprietary active risk management system, designed to grow your assets with equity exposure while protecting you against steep market declines.

My partner, Adam Spilka, and I have built a firm focused on delivering performance, client service, transparency, and risk management that will satisfy even the most demanding institutional clients.

I founded Huygens in 2011, after a decade of working in alternative investments, investment management, and corporate finance. My early career was focused on information theory and algorithm design for high performance covert communication systems.
