Additional Information

My passion for the financial markets began in elementary school when my dad let me pick and follow stocks through the Wall Street Journal. I continued this path by majoring in finance at Santa Clara University and after graduation worked as an equities trader in San Francisco. After nearly a decade of trading stocks, I switched gears and began working in the wine industry, which soon led to the founding of my own winery in 2008. You may have even visited my tasting room in the Carneros region of Sonoma County.
