Professional Poker Player

Used mass data analysis (MDA) to look at patterns and habits in the pool of online players playing poker (population) and finding ways to deviate and exploit these tendencies to maximize profitability.
Showed discipline in multiple forms, in terms of time management, commitment to playing 40+ hours a week, and even more when you consider the time allotted for study five days a week, as well as the review of hand histories, tournaments, and stats analysis. Studying poker is rather similar to studying chess.
I networked in the community to meet incredible, like-minded people my age and older, with incredible stories, as well as valuable insight and experience, which helped me immensely.
Poker teaches you to keep your cool in high pressure scenarios and not let stress prevent you from making the best decision possible.

I thoroughly enjoy rock climbing as of late, as it challenges me physically, as well as mentally, since climbing is rather problem-solving and puzzle-oriented
I enjoy team sports, such as basketball, which I have played for about 10 years, of which 6 were at a competitive level
I thoroughly enjoyed coaching a youth basketball team, as I was one of the chosen coaches when a new club was set up in the NEIC, run by Michael Darragh MaCauley
I also provided poker coaching to many recreational players, as well as some lower-stakes professionals, who were looking to improve their game
