Corey Ribotsky Update

Corey Ribotsky, a volunteer at the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS), would be only too proud of the Georgia Chain Gang. This Gang, comprising Dave Armento, Frank Fuerst, Jerome Rossetti and Tony Myers will be, yet again, doing more than their bit to benefit this very important organization.  These four men will be taking part in the upcoming 2010 Race Across America, in which bikers have to cycle from Oceanside, CA to Annapolis, MD.  This will mark the second time that this very athletic gang will be rising to the challenge.  These remarkable individuals did pretty well last year, finishing in 7 days, 8 hours and 19 minutes.  They actually won from their age group too and came in fourth place overall from all 4-man teams!

Corey Ribotsky for LLS

Corey Ribotsky understands the importance of this vital organization.  Anything that can be done to help them – such as what the Gang has been, and is doing – is an extremely worthy venture.  Ribotsky himself volunteers his time with the LLS and the fact that last year the Gang raised a staggering $80,000 for blood cancer research is only something that individuals like Ribotsky are thrilled about.  The LLS is equally delighted since this year the Gang’s aim is to double the money they raise                  from that of last year.

Corey Ribotsky – currently a Managing Partner at the NIR Group (an investment company that seeks to provide alternative strategies in all different market environments) – has a very impressive educational background, that probably steered him in the right direction for his current business position. He earned his BA at New York’s SUNY Stony Brook and an MBA from the Leonard N. Stern Graduate School of Business.

Ribotsky and SUNY Stony Brook

Being accepted as a student at SUNY Stony Brook is an impressive feat in and of itself.  But what such a college education can potentially lead to afterwards is even more exciting for its students, including graduate Corey Ribotsky.  Indeed, the educational institution was classified in the top one percent of all universities around the world by the London Times Higher Education-QS World University Ranking.  Another plus for the college is that it is relatively inexpensive (especially compared to other highly reputable universities) and it offers over 150 undergraduate programs.  As well, SUNY Stony Brook hosts many researchers and is the only teaching hospital in a university in the Long Island area.  This university is a wonderfully helpful environment for those wanting to continue on to graduate programs as well.  Perhaps that is why Corey Ribotsky began his educational career there.
