The Astute Investor Professionally, I consider myself an accomplished finance executive with extensive finance and technology experience in diverse industries including investment banking, semiconductors, media, entertainment, and aerospace. I've also been passionate about both the big picture, i.e., the economy, debt and equity markets, and how the policies of this country and the world impact all of us, as well as the small picture, i.e., which are the industries that will be impacted (either negatively or positively) from these macroeconomic shifts.
