Olá, I’m Daniel! 👋

I’m an R(esearcher) at the University of São Paulo (USP) working on complex systems and data science. My family name is actually KACHvartanian, but I go by Vartanian to save everyone from a linguistic workout.

I love building open-source tools, being part of active communities, and working with the R, Python, and NetLogo programming languages. When I’m not coding, I’m likely watching a good movie, seeing friends, wandering through new places, or tinkering with some obscure new thing that may or may not go anywhere.

I am a cognitive and behavioural economist, heterodox economist and postdoctoral researcher at the University of CHIETI-PESCARA, Italy. Before this, I worked at Procter & Gamble.I hold a PhD in the Human Science curriculum in Economics and Statistics from the University of CHIETI-PESCARA, and an MS in management, finance and development from the University of CHIETI-PESCARA.
I am also a board member of the Society of Experimental Finance and the Italian Post-Keynesian Society.
In my spare time, I enjoy travel, reading, jogging, and coding.

I´m a full Professor at the Universidad Autónoma de Baja California in Mexico. I teach computer sciences and software engineering in graduate and undergraduate academic programs.
