JORGE ALVARADO

TRADER

MY FINANCIAL SERVICES CAREER BEGAN IN 2021

Though my career began at Private Vista as an associate trader in May of 2021, my interest in the financial services field came about in college when I began tutoring economics. While tutoring I realized how much I enjoyed learning about the relationships that affect one another in the field. This led me to becoming interested in the markets during the COVID-19 pandemic, since it was very similar to how certain economic factors can have positive or negative applications. I plan to remain working in finance for the foreseeable future and will continue to learn about the financial markets and how they interact with one another.

MY PRIVATE VISTA

I was born in Monterrey, Mexico, which translates to King Mountain in English. Being raised in Illinois, a flat state known for its prairies, I have been missing the mountains. I have not done much hiking in my lifetime, but My Private Vista is to be able to go back to Monterrey, Mexico, and hike across el Cerro de la Silla mountain with my best friends.
