He was a 30 year Treasury Bond Trader in the pits of the CBOT and has since moved onto a District Sales Manager position for a dermatology company based out of Denmark. His hobbies include fishing and golf outside of the diamond, and he considers himself an avid fisherman, having competed against some of the best during the Bassmasters during 2004-2010.
