| Work Experience: |
Graduating from the University of Washington in 1966, having majored in both accounting and finance, I accepted a position with one of the top national C.P.A. firms. After several years in the accounting field, I was attracted to the stock market and became a stock broker. My career has now spanned a period of almost 40 years. In 1995, I decided to leave the "wire house" firms, where I worked for premier brokerage companies, to become involved with the independent brokerage industry. I joined Washington Asset Management in Bellevue, Washington, which is a local independent brokerage firm whose broker-dealer is The Concord Equity Group. Together with my son, Adam Levy, CRPC, we formed the Levy Investment Group.
