I'm a recent graduate of The University of Southern Mississippi. I have my BSBA in Economics with a minor in mathematics. I am currently a candidate to sit for the 2nd level of the CFA exams to be taken in June 2012.

I moved to New York in July 2011 to seek work in finance and have been fortunate enough to have been able to find employment in the area working in the financial services/asset management industry.

I have nearly five years of investment experience and have come a long way from where I started in 2007, but I realize I still have a long way to go. I spend countless hours reading about finance, analyzing companies, researching macroeconomic trends, and am simply just trying to learn how the ...More World Economy works so that I can adjust myself accordingly.

Overall, I'm still learning a lot but I feel that I have something valuable to bring to the table as I'm learning. I'm open to any feedback and look forward to hearing from you.

VALV had a blood-bath today...and in the past several months. New article coming soon once I can put all of the material together. Jun 8, 2011
