Jeffrey Hildebrand, now trading his own account (options, futures) in Paris, enjoys the world as much as it enjoys having him–they learn a lot from one another. An undauntable dabbler, entrepreneur, tech aficionado (Java, C++, PHP, SQL, plus the hardware side), and C-level executive, Jeff could also sing along credibly with Corinne Bailey Rae on Paris Nights/New York Mornings–except he’s not much of a singer. He just knows the subject, having been long at large in both capital cities.
He moved to France with small French and less Greek, but plenty smarts and some geek these days go further than that old formula. Hildebrand had no troubles. He is father to Eva, who rides horses. He draws and gardens, travels and wonders, reads and reacts. He’s worked with the New York Stock Exchange, LL Cool J, and Yo-Yo Ma. He’s short the Euro. Long the countryside. Today, October 9, is his birthday. He’s not this guy.
