MY GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT: Seizing the opportunity to move to Chicago and trade options for Group One Trading on the floor of the Chicago Board Options Exchange. After almost 13 years of trading options, I have been named one of Group One’s top traders and earned ownership units in Group One Trading. While working full time, I attained the chartered financial analyst designation and have recently enrolled part time at The University of Chicago’s Master of Science in Analytics program. While in Chicago I met my wife, Stacy, and we have a son Benjamin.

HOW DREXEL HELPED: Many of the beginning contacts for this opportunity were created through the Drexel cooperative education program and Drexel Athletics. Drexel’s emphasis on technology has given me an edge as technology transforms the options trading business.

MY HOPE FOR THE FUTURE: Technology has created an explosion of information and data analytics represents an opportunity for companies worldwide, including Group One.
