I’ve been a professional trader for nearly 25 years, with a passion for the futures markets that began back in high school. After graduating from college in 1996, I immediately started working on the floor of the CME as a runner. Over the years, I transitioned to an options clerk role, eventually earning my first real opportunity in trading within the Eurodollar options pit.

In 2001, I left the trading floor to explore the emerging world of electronic trading on GLOBEX. This new path led me to an electronic trading firm in 2003, where I spent over 12 years honing my skills. In this environment, I learned firsthand the invaluable role a mentor or coach can play, and I was fortunate enough to mentor and coach many new traders along the way.

After our firm closed its doors in 2015, I shifted to trading my own account, continuing to teach and guide traders whenever I can. Helping others build their trading skills and watching them grow is as rewarding to me as trading itself.
