What's up, anonymous internet readership? As you can tell by the fact that I'm blogging, I'm procrastinating. Credit Derivatives homework number 5 - I plan to start you closer to your deadline than I have ever started any homework in my life. Well, except for maybe Credit Derivatives homework number 2, but I had to turn that one in half-done, and I simply can't afford to commit such an act of rebellion twice. Shocking, I know.
So speaking of productivity, I'm making some headway on my giant "to-do list of life" these days. I alluded mysteriously in my last post to acceptance of a job offer, and I know you all have been quivering with anticipation since that day and have probably started on-line gambling communities that revolve around your guesses as to which lucky company will soon welcome me on to their payroll. Well, you shall wait no longer - that company is Constellation Energy in Baltimore.
I will be starting out with a few other folks, including one other Tepperite, in an MBA rotational program in their corporate finance division. Let me point out to prospective MSCF students out there who are confused right now that yes, it is incredibly rare, for an MSCF student to go corporate in this way. But, I am an MBA student as well, and I guess I figured out over the summer that I am more interested in the business strategy side of things than I am in the middle-of-the-action trading floor side of things. Constellation has a big trading operation, so I also propose to you that my quantitative finance training will not go to waste as they have complicated risk management issues that will afford opportunities to use at least the intuition I've gained from MSCF (hopefully not the C++ skills, to be quite honest - that would probably end terribly for both of us:)
In 13 days, I will also be checking another big box on my life to-do list as fiance and long-time steady Jonathan and I finally tie the proverbial knot. In Vegas. Yee haw! Well, I guess that's all for now. Time to go read some accounting case studies - credit homework will just have to wait until tomorrow...
