As the Founder and CIO of Riverwater Partners, I am passionate about helping institutions, non-profits, individuals, families, grow their wealth through responsible investing. At Riverwater Partners, we specialize in small-cap strategies that integrate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors to not only seek alpha but also make a positive impact on the world. Growing up in Milwaukee and spending a lot of time “up north”, I developed a love for the environment. My passion for finance sprouted during my undergraduate studies. This dual passion led me on a journey to create an investment firm that aligns with my values. The path wasn't straightforward.I began my career in traditional finance roles, but had graduated with a degree in environmental sciences. I often questioned the broader impact of my work. Was there a way to not only generate returns but also contribute to a better world?The turning point came when I started Riverwater and read emerging research on sustainable and ESG investing. The data was compelling: responsible investing wasn't just a feel-good approach; it had the potential to drive superior financial performance. This realization was both exciting and daunting. I knew I had to make a choice – continue down the well-trodden path of traditional finance or venture into the relatively new territory of responsible investing in the small cap space.I chose the latter. In 2016, I co-founded Riverwater Partners with the mission to integrate responsible investing principles into our portfolios. This decision was not without its challenges. Convincing clients and peers of the merits of responsible investing requires persistence and unwavering belief in our vision.Today, I am proud of how far we've come. Riverwater Partners has grown into a trusted advisor for those who want to align their investments with their values. We are a Certified B Corporation and a Certified Woman-Owned Business, committed to making a positive impact on both our clients' portfolios and the world at large.Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring the beautiful outdoors of Wisconsin, and staying active in our community. These passions remind me of the importance of our mission at Riverwater Partners – to make the world a better place.I invite you to join us on this journey. Let's create wealth and a better world together.
