In his current role, he is responsible for leading the quantitative research team, overseeing portfolio strategy, and managing key investment funds, including the Redwood mutual funds, LeaderShares® ETFs, and specialized asset allocation portfolios.

He co-manages tactical and systematic strategies, such as the Redwood Systematic Macro Trend (SMarT®) Fund, which allocates dynamically among equities, fixed income, and alternative investments with a focus on capital appreciation and downside risk mitigation. Cheung is also involved in the private real estate debt sector through the Redwood Private Real Estate Debt Fund, which originates and manages commercial real estate bridge loans.

He holds a degree in Quantitative Economics and Mathematics from the University of California, Irvine, equipping him with deep expertise in quantitative modeling, risk management, and systematic investment research.
