      After graduating from Lehigh with a Bachelor of Science degree inFinance, I took a job as a financial analyst for a bank in Baltimore,Maryland. My goal was to learn as much about as many companies as possibleand then take my experience to New York City and become a professionaltrader. It was during my tenure as an analyst that I began trading options.I was a big loser at first, but as I read and learned more about themarkets, I began to make money. The more I traded, the more I yearned to bea professional trader, and I eventually decided that it was time to move toManhattan.
