All right. Yeah, if you just tell me about your background, and what led you to finance and investing?
Sure. So I've had Arquitos Capital for about seven and a half years or so. My background is as an attorney, I worked for a nonprofit as well, when I first got out of undergrad, also a Judge Advocate in the Army Reserves about 19 years in there as well. So do a little bit of legal work still, on a very part time basis.
