Top SchoolTaylor Turner is a Principal with a decade of experience at the intersection of machine learning, quantitative finance, and investment management, currently leading both a boutique wealth firm and senior engagements at CapTech. He spent seven years building and managing ML teams at Capital One, where he moved models from research into robust, production-ready pipelines, and contributed to open-source data tooling such as improvements to Capital One’s widely used DataProfiler project.
