My experience includes international banking, corporate development, strategic consulting and turnaround management. I received my MBA in finance and international business from The Wharton School.  I stumbled into the action sports business in 1990 as snowboarding was taking off.  I was a manager, investor and consultant in what’s now the active outdoor business for 30 years and wrote the long running MarketWatch column.  I’ve refocused on my lifelong interest in macroeconomics, political economy, history and its cycles, and debt and funds flow.  Pretty sure you’ll hear things on my new and improved site you don’t hear anywhere else.  And don’t worry- I haven’t forgotten my action sports roots.
