Work in progress....
Teach, Learn, Share
I work in an Investment Consulting firm and specialize in investments and risk management. My day job is to help foundations, hospitals, and corporations invest their assets to pay for future expenses. I absolutely love finance, mathematics, and discussing the ever-complex workings of global capital markets.
