## Resource

S.A. Thomas, aka Steve, is the author of "How to Succeed on Wall St. and Why You Should Absolutely Not Do It: A Moron's Memoir”. Thomas is a 20-year Wall St. Veteran who was born and raised in NYC, currently residing in Staten Island, New York. He has held various roles throughout his career and is currently a Managing Director at an Investment Brokerage, focusing on Convertible Bonds. He believes that through creativity we may heal and be healed and is the founder of Creative Postures, which fosters a community space for non-traditional artists, through mentorship and platforms to showcase their work. All of which inspired Rick's jazz interpretation of a classic Country Melody combined with Steve's original lyrics about his daily trip on the Staten Island Ferry.
