About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life life to the fullest!

ABOUT ME

I'm on my third job in this wonderful career journey! I am a Commodity Trader in Chicago.

I love food, it is a downfall and a great enjoyment at the same time. Downfall for my pocketbook and a great enjoyment for myself.

I'm outgoing, love sports, and meeting new people!! I play ice hockey weekly. On the side I play volleyball, softball, tennis, and racquetball. In other words I like to stay active.

I'll try anything more than once even if it gives me a few bruises. So try me.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is better to travel well than to arrive."
