When I was 10 years old, my parents surprised me with a trip to NYC to a destination of my choice. Most people would suspect that my response would be Times Square, Central Park, or the latest sports event. Unlike most 10-year old’s, my response was a visit to the Financial District and the New York Stock Exchange. As the years went by, my interest in the financial world grew and it was inevitable that I would earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Finance and a Minor in Business Analytics from Ramapo College. I joined the student-managed fund and served as President of the group, sharpening my stock market and securities knowledge…how to read charts, deciphering financial statements, immersing myself with fixed income, and understanding the differences between fads and real stocks to invest in. Upon graduation, I found a home here at IBEX Wealth Advisors.That’s a brief history about me.
