I hold a BS in Accounting and Finance from the Institute of Management Sciences (IMSciences), where my research focused on seasonal anomalies in the stock market. I spend much of my time researching dividend and index-fund strategies — reading fund filings, checking distribution histories, and running long-term projections. I built the Dividend Forecaster because I wanted a calculator that was transparent about its math and grounded in real numbers, rather than a black box. Every projection here uses assumptions I'd want spelled out before trusting a forecast myself. If you spot an error or have a question, the is the best way to reach me.
