I work in a team environment to provide comprehensive wealth management services to both high net worth individuals and institutional clients. This encompasses the development and execution of a financial plan as well as customized investment strategies designed to meet each client’s goals. Of course, the strategy also incorporates the advice of other professionals such as the client’s tax advisor and estate planning attorney. In addition to these duties, I oversee the firm’s research process, research budget and provide oversight of each of our investment strategies.I am also active as an analyst and a portfolio manager. Currently, I am a managing member of the Relative Value Equity, Small/Mid Equity and Multi Strategy Teams. As a member of these teams, I am responsible for security selection, portfolio construction and ongoing management. Notably, some of these strategies contain only individual stocks while others utilize only exchange traded funds (ETFs). Regardless of the instrument employed we seek securities of high quality companies, that are liquid and with transparent reporting. We find that these qualities help us avoid many of the issues that occur during market declines. In terms of investment strategy, I am a member of the Policy Team which is responsible for setting the tactical and strategic asset allocation targets for the firm’s clients. This team is unique as it integrates the outlook of our equity, fixed income and alternative investment managers in order to develop their recommendations. Notably, this process emphasizes both risk management and the search for opportunities as we strive to preserve our client’s wealth during market declines and grow their asset base as the financial markets rise.

I worked in a team environment to provide multi-generational wealth management services to highly affluent families. In particular, I specialized in investment analysis and strategy while maintaining responsibility for all phases of the investment process including portfolio construction, development of asset allocation targets, manager selection and implementation. I was also a member of investment committee which set the investment strategy for all of the firm’s clients. As a provider of family office services, we maintained a strong emphasis on socially responsible, mission related and values based investments. We also worked extensively with both traditional and alternative investments.

In this role I worked in a dual capacity. I was responsible for trading Repurchase Agreements (Repo), Eurodollar Deposits, and Fed Funds as sources of funding for the bank. I also served as an advisor to middle-market and institutional clients such as mid-sized to large companies, money managers, mutual funds, and bond dealers. In this capacity, I advised companies on the management of their excess cash. In addition, I worked closely with the firm’s bond underwriters during the issuance process to provide feedback on bond structure, terms, yield levels and subsequent demand in the market place.
