Building Systems. Allocating Capital. Thinking in Probabilities.

Economics student at the University of Georgia focused on quantitative research, systematic trading, and entrepreneurial capital allocation.

About Me

Quantitative economics, market research, and entrepreneurial execution.

Core Bio

I’m Fabian Bonilla, an Economics student at the University of Georgia, Terry College of Business, with a business analytics and quantitative finance emphasis (expected graduation: December 2026). I am based in Georgia and building my career around disciplined capital allocation.

I come from a Mexican-American immigrant family and carry a first-generation mindset: operate with urgency, learn quickly, and keep standards high. That mindset pushed me into entrepreneurship early, acquiring my first business through an SBA loan entrepreneurship early—acquiring my first business through an SBA loan, operating a café, and running a videography business with recurring weekly revenue.

In markets, I focus on risk-managed systems instead of prediction-based opinions. I have been building and backtesting systematic frameworks (including ORB breakout research), while developing technical fluency in R, Python, and SQL for data-driven decisions.

Long term, I am optimizing for three outcomes: elite systematic trading capability, ownership of high-quality cash-flowing businesses, and a durable capital platform that compounds over decades.
