I’ve worked in Financial Services since 2008 and that is essentially when I started my investment journey. The first half of my career was spent in New York, working professionally after college (BS – Finance and D1 Men’s Tennis), but I have since relocated to North Carolina, obtaining my MBA and then working in the Banking sector. I am fortunate to split my time between Charlotte and Asheville.I keep my portfolio up-to-date and take pride in writing about funds, stocks, and sectors I actually follow and invest in. I believe my followers appreciate that approach.My strategy is to invest in quality and diversify, add at the right times, and focus on the long run. Chasing risk, trying to make too much too quickly, or following advice you don’t understand are all pitfalls I made and that experience has taught me well. I hope to help others along the way as a result.Broad market: DIA, VOO, QQQM, RSPSectors/Non-US: XLE/IXC; IDU/BUI, FEZ, SCHF, EWC, EWU, EWAAlternatives: Bitcoin, Gold, Silver (IAU & CEF)Stocks: JPM, MCD, WMT, FLUT, MAADebt: Municipal bonds from North CarolinaI also contribute to the investing group CEF/ETF Income Laboratory where I specialize in macro analysis.
