About

Started a lawn care business when I was 12 because I was bored and wanted money to buy some Pokemon cards so I knocked on my neighbors doors and soon had 10 clients. I worked very hard all season long and by the end of the first season I had more than enough money to buy Pokemon cards and quite a bit left over. So I decided to invest my newly earned money in the stock market. I started researching what stocks would best meet my objectives and started trading (through a custodian account my parents set up). I soon was making more money trading than mowing. I kept both up while adding landscaping to the mix. At age 22 I sold my landscaping business and started a software startup. Now I trade stocks a few hours a day and work on my software startup the rest of the day/night. I also graduated from Columbia College.
