I used to study options trading but pivoted to value investing 💵 after a life-altering dinner with Warren Buffet. Back in the day I was traveling around the world as a musician, but I’ve now settled in Los Angeles with my wife and two children. Together with my wife I started Better Booch 🥃 - a nationally distributed Kombucha company. ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ ⏤ GET IN TOUCH WITH ME 💬: I’d love to hear from you!
