I went to University of Oregon, Math and Econ major. Right out of school, getting a job was tough and initially I sold mutual funds and insurance for 6 months out of school, which was the bane of my existence. My next job was at the HQ for Hollywood Video where I did financial/inventory analysis for their Game Crazy video game retail line of business. Then I used my experience there to arrive at my current position of financial analyst at a bigger company.

Corporate world is a strange, contrived place. Sometimes it zaps your self worth, other times it fuels it. Sometimes I wonder what the hell I'm doing here and other times I feel like there's nothing I'd rather be doing. My coworkers are odd people but that's OK because I am fairly autonomous over the business processes I oversee and no one micromanages me.

I wish I owned an online bike shop. That will be my next foray.
