On his first day (16 Feb 2006) of contribution, he tried to initiate some article related to finance, which is his area of study. However, he is also interested in some other fields as well. He works at an asset management firm as an assistant adviser/paraplanner.

First Article
In his first article, he came up with a topic that he found it was quite hard to look up on the web when he did some research a while ago. The topic is closed-form formula, which is then broken down into two parts: bond duration closed-form formula and bond convexity closed-form formula.

The most challenging part in writing the article was that when editing the mathematical formula in Wiki syntax to be rendered as HTML and PNG.

He realises that the article still needs some further expert touch in order to make more comprehensive. The article has also been cloned into the Reuters Financial Glossary Wiki. He also believes that some finance professionals out there may also like to share some knowledge of the implementation regarding this.
