Summary
Although I have seven years of experience in the solid waste industry, my true passion lies in value investing. Since 2014, I have successfully managed a multi-million dollar equity portfolio for my family, gaining invaluable insights into equity evaluation and portfolio management. Now, I am eager to apply these real-life lessons and further develop my skills at an investment firm that shares my enthusiasm for value investing. I firmly believe that with time, I can make a significant contribution to a company that is open to considering a "non-traditional" analyst candidate like myself.
