I write on Seeking Alpha to demonstrate my financial analysis and writing skills across a variety of industries and to take advantage of any story-based trading opportunity that may arise.

I am interested in any freelance opportunities that may arise outside of Seeking Alpha on Canadian or American listed stocks. Currently challenging myself to do a high volume of quality analysis.
