Jack's Story
Life
After High School, I couldn't decide what I wanted to do. So, I changed my major (and schools) several times. I started at Rose-Hulman in Mechanical Engineering & Mathematics, and ended up at UofI Champaign for Physics. I got wise my senior year and realized that physics doesn't pay money. So, I transferred to Computer Science and got my degree from the School of Engineering.
All was not lost in the Physics department. I did meet my wife there in 1990. We've now been married for 10 years and have three sons, Joshua, Zachary & Caleb. (Insert...Expand for more

I started work for Reuters, the London-based news organization in 1991, writing software. After 4 years, I decided to join the dark side (Marketing) and have been there for almost 6 years. I went back to school and finally got my Masters in Finance and Trading in '99. Now I am qualified to loose money in any currency :-)
I've lived in the Western suburbs of Chicago for over 10 years now. We now we live in Aurora, IL.
When I'm not with the family, my hobbies are golfing, off-roading (with my Jeep), and foil fencing.
