Quantum Support provides material support for small- to mid-sized businesses and private individuals.

Quantum Support is an independent contractor. This benefits clients in three ways. First, it eliminates the open-ended contractual liability from hiring a full-time employee; second, it expedites turnaround time; and third, it is a more economical use of capital.

As an independent contractor, Quantum Support is retained to complete assignments on a singular basis. QS is judged on the quality of this work and QS is incentivized to do quality work because future business is premised on doing quality work. We are reliant on our reputation. Hiring independent contractors to do work is good business practice because it presents employers with reduced liabilities (financial & legal) with a reduction in expense due to the elimination of employee idle-time. You don’t need to pay a full-time employee for a 40-hour work week when they work for only 20 hours per week.

Ethan Castanon worked has worked in both the medical and financial industries. He had an affinity for mathematics and after graduating, he began working in high finance. After the downturn in residential lending, Ethan began working as a “Quantitative Analyst” at Ascendant Asset Advisors (one of the partners bestowed unto me this grandiose title!) and JPS Capital Management in Beverly Hills, CA (and briefly for Tanius Technology) through the duration of worst parts of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. This included witnessing the non-passage of the first bailout bill that precipitated the largest point drop for the Dow Jones Industrial Average on record, approx. 777pts.

The market rout of 2008 compelled Ethan to set out on establishing stability through employment by many clients rather than one.

Finance is heavily reliant on technology and technology is also intertwined in almost almost every other sector of the economy and in our personal lives. It goes unsaid that there is an underserved market out there.
