About Jay Garcilazo (http://favstocks.com)
I grew up in Boca Raton, Florida. After graduating high school I enrolled at Florida State University where I studied Journalism and Political Science. It was around this time that I got a job in the healthcare industry, a job that would give me a lot of experience as I worked and moved up over the next four and a half years. This along with working for a hedge fund manager for years, were the greatest learning experiences of my life so far.

I have also been fortunate enough to have lived all over the country in, Austin, Texas, Queens, New York, Great Falls, Montana, Cleveland, Ohio, Chattanooga, Tennessee, Atlanta, Georgia, and all over the state of Florida. As well as living in many places I have traveled all over, been to all of the states except California (Had a layover at LAX once but I don’t think that counts), Oregon, and Hawaii. Traveled most of the Caribbean, I have also been to many destinations in Canada, and Mexico. I even did a stint through Europe. As well as traveling and living all over I have also worked in a great many industries. I have been employed in finance, healthcare, title, mortgage, travel, video game development, hospitality, and news industries.

Besides working for an investment company I have also done quite a bit of investing on my own, and through trial and error, learning from mistakes, and watching the news very closely I have made some decent money for myself.
