"Goooooood morning, WSO!!"

Hello!

Glad to be a part of WSO. I look forward to learning, sharing, collaborating with my fellow monkey members.

Elevator speech: b/r in Houston, come from a large Greek family. Besides the family olive oil business and olive orchard back in Southern Greece... I have spent the last year involved in tanker ship brokerage US/Latin America trade markets. This included the facilitation of deals between oil companies, traders and ship-owners, and negotiates for cargoes to be transported between producers and refiners. Prior to this, I’ve had hands-on involvement in oil and gas trading & scheduling, where I have spent over 5 years working in Houston.

Received my BS in Maritime Administration/Finance & my MS in Maritime Logistics.

Thanks for hearing me out!

Regards /GTJ
