I am the 24 year old Director of Technology for a small financial services software company in El Segundo, CA. I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii for 18 years, though.
My passion for Personal Finance is as such: Even when I was 18, I wanted to become a financial planner when I graduated from college. While in college, however, I realized that my calling was in computers and the Internet. But that hasn't stopped my dream; I've was formerly a financial advisor (on a different level) here at Epinions, writing high quality reviews to help others avoid financial mistakes and maximize personal financial gain.
Relevant Previous Experience: -Bookkeeper at a large food distribution company in Hawaii -Computer Sales Associate at a major electronics retailer -Auditor at a major credit union on the West Coast. -Accountant / web designer for a Commodity Trading Advisor (similar to a money manager) trading US notes and bonds -Freelance web design / database building -Working at Sapient Corporation as a consultant / engineer. -Working for an animation studio, as a Hardware technician -Director of Technology of this financial services software firm.

I'd like to comment on my rating style. From the days of being an Advisor, I picked up the habit of being especially critical in rating Finance reviews.
I will follow the Epinions rating guidelines, which are located here. Please do not take offense to any of my ratings, but instead, as constructive criticism. Thank you.
