About Me

Let's see. On a normal life I am involved in some top notch hard core high tech financial company. But when I am not working, it's travel time.... I primarily lived half my life between Israel & all over US as i have dual citizenship.

In the last 3 years I traveled to almost half of Europe and got to explore quite a few scenarios and interesting people. Albeit all the traveling, I never been further east than Israel (I know right!),

From Sep 13th I will be in my 3 week expedition to Thailand and Japan and I can't wait. It's going to vary from the paradise island of Koh Samui to the crazy robot show in Tokyo, I'm really gonna dive in to this Far East culture.

For 12 years I lived in the following in US:

Silicon Valley, CA
Phoenix, AZ
Connecticut
Vermont
Ann Arbor, Michigan (Alumni of University of Michigan)

I built immunity from the tundra of Vermont to the scorching sun of Phoenix, AZ. Like literally in 2004 I was in VT in the winter and then AZ in the summer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Decided I will move to America at the age of 12 after months persuading my mother to relocate with my father who lived in Phoenix, AZ at the time, and butterfly effect took place in the after math of that.

Teach, Learn, Share

My regular occupation entails analysis in the digital financial world. I work for a major financial company creating algorithm of all sorts.

For when I don't work and i have holidays, i love to travel, of course all travels have its price and cost. I have experienced a lot with financial management and one of my goals is not to just reach prosperity but freedom as well. Both money and freedom are key to allow you to feel the full breathe of joy of traveling experience as traveling afterall can be expensive, depending on your plans.

If you are like me who also look to find ways to do well in the financial world to afford the enjoyable traveling, i can help you with learning how to achieve a win win of both worlds.
