No industry experience but Real, Verifiable Results

I haven't graduated from a top five university with a 4.0 GPA, hell I went to UW-Madison and studied Chemistry while putting 7 years in the Marine Corps Reserves. Given that, I still have a great work ethic, analytical mind, and a passion for profit.
For the past 10 years I've worked as a scientist, specialist, and IS Analyst for one of the top biotechs in the world. I'm currently a Senior Informatics Consultant and I'm successful but my passion lies in trading (equities, options, and fx). I manage my own personal accounts along with my parents and girlfriends 401k. I've had good results to date and would like the opportunity to make money for one of the bigger firms. Talk is cheap and results speak much louder so I have included a screenshot from my personal account. I have three other accounts that I can provide screenshots for if you're interested (much smaller balances but still profitable). I'd love to find a position where I can trade full-time and I'm definitely willing to learn new strategies and trading plans. If there was a Turtle program out there today I think I'd be a great candidate. Thanks for your time and I look forward to making money for you soon!
