Humberto Godinez

I'm a Quant on Prudential Financial's Global Investment Strategy team, where I build quantitative models and GenAI-enabled tools that support investment decisions. Before that I spent nearly four years in Global Portfolio Management at the same firm.

At my core, I'm a Decision Scientist, Agile Learner and Listener — committed to clarity, adaptability and collaboration. I combine analytical rigor with business perspective so data doesn't just explain the past; it drives smarter, forward-looking choices.

I'm also an angel investor in Dollarize, a fintech leveraging blockchain for instant, fee-free cross-border transfers. Before Prudential I was a Visiting Assistant Professor at ITAM, Delivery Lead for data-driven solutions at Arundo Analytics in Houston, data scientist at QRI, and spent a decade at Pemex as a quantitative advisor to the CFO.

I hold a PhD in Mathematics from the University of Liverpool (Institute for Financial and Actuarial Mathematics), an MSc in Computer Science from Georgia Tech (Interactive Intelligence), and BSc degrees in Actuarial Sciences and Applied Mathematics from ITAM. My research focuses on the long-term financial sustainability of pension systems.
