About

I was born and raised in a small town in rural Alabama. My mother is a high school English and Psychology teacher, and my father is a Chiropractor. At an early age, I learned the value of hard work and critical thinking from my parents. I am a baseball fanatic, and I played competitively from the age of five until the NCAA told me I had no more years of eligibility remaining.

My degree from MIT is in Brain & Cognitive Sciences, and I attribute my academic and professional success to hard work and tenacity. I have had a lifelong fascination with the way our brains work: where our thoughts come from, why we feel certain emotions, and what makes us behave the way we do. My love for statistics and numbers sparked my curiosity about the stock market and drove me to write my book and pursue a career writing about what I love.
