About me

Because the host of this blog doesn't give us enough space to give a good profile statement, I thought I would use my first blog to give my background so that when you read my posts you will know why I say what I say and why I know what I am talking about. First of all I have been trained in all lines of insurance and series 6 and 63 of financial planning. I previously had a career of selling insurance and mutual funds. I tried to start my own computer business as my Dad (an electrical engineer) trained me in basic technical electronics and I did a lot of self study on computers and hardware. I am a little rusty on both of those areas, but still have useful expertise. I have worked as a clinical pharmacy technician in a hospital for over 5 years now. I returned to college in 2001 to get into medical school, and as I write this post, I am applying to medical school. I studied both biology and psychology in undergrad receiving a degree in each with a minor in chemistry, and I am at this moment a master's degree candidate in biology and applied statistics for a focus on epidemiology. I have training in 4 martial arts, I am a weight lifter now for about a year and a half so far, and I like to garden, fish, play golf, and read about just about anything. I watch or listen to politically oriented TV and radio as often as possible. I think that just about covers the basics about me.
