Some info about myself...
Where shall I begin? Well...might as well start at the beginning. I was born on August 4, 1979 and was raised in Downers Grove, Illinois. I attended Highland Elementary School, Herrick Junior High School, and Downers Grove North High School. In high school, I played varsity soccer and tennis. My senior year I was co-captain of the soccer team. I also played percussion in symphonic wind ensemble throughout high school. Further, I played the set in jazz band and snare drum in the drumline.
My latest accomplishment is graduating from the University of Illinois in Urbana/Champaign with a BS in General Engineering and a Minor in Technology and Management on December 16th, 2001. At the U of I, one of my major activities is the Illini Drumline in the Marching Illini. It was a blast. I met some of the greatest guys and got to feel like I made a contribution to the spirit of the university. To find out more about my education and activities, check out my resume.
Now that I am done with school, I begin work full time at Citadel Investment Group, LLC in downtown Chicago. I am going to be working in the Quality Assurance department of the of IT group. I am very excited to get started and learn more about the financial markets. If you want to learn more about my past internships and my job-to-be, check out my jobs page.
Outside of school/work, I love sports, music, and travelling. I love to play all sports, but I especially love working out, running, soccer, golf, tennis, skiing, and mountain biking. I would say that skiing and mountain biking have become two of my favorite sports to do as of recently. I love to play music and listen to all types. I play drums and am currently working on learning guitar and piano. I love to see other places in the world. I would travel pretty much anywhere given the time and cash flow.
