Banking financial analyst for nearly 25 years, play jazz/funk drums as a hobby (hence the pseudonym). Caught by the foreclosure swoon in Northern NV and looking to recapture my financial footing through short-term, low cost trading. Work experience includes a stint in the residential mortgage industry as an honest (broke) loan officer, but I also have developed strong contacts in the local title and realtor industry. I'd like to use what I know to keep people out of the foreclosure morass.

My investment interests include residential and commercial real estate, specialty retail, domestic automotive industry and cross-trading forex strategies.
