I\'m fascinated with emerging technologies and their disruptive applications not only in the financial services industry but across all industries. Other than reading and researching online - I love to step away from my computer to enjoy snowboarding, hiking, camping, and exploring national parks. When I find myself back at my computer on my downtime I dive into random github projects, upgrade my PC, explore fun coding applications, and listen to podcasts.
