Independent board member, private investor and proven executive with 30+ years of experience in financial services.In the boardroom, I draw from my career as a founder/CEO, chief investment officer and portfolio manager for mutual funds and hedge funds; my background in technology; and my governance experience as a long-serving board member.I have helped to create highly functional board-management relationships from both sides, informed by my roles both on boards and as a CEO reporting to boards. The overlap of these many experiences allows me to contribute to and draw from the board's shared insights and offer an additive perspective to the board's oversight work, which I channel through thoughtful questions, "yes-and" discussions and respect for each person in the room.I am a lifelong learner who aims to complement my fellow directors so that, together, we can ensure an informed, constructive and long-lived partnership between the board and management and a positive and collegial environment in which to achieve the best outcomes for shareholders.Relevant skills/expertise:- 40 Act and alternative funds- Audit Committee chair (Qualified Financial Expert)- Portfolio Management- Credit/Fixed Income- Derivatives- Valuation- Regulatory Compliance- ESG Strategies- Technology/Cybersecurity- Fund Operations/Distribution- Risk Management- Capital Markets- Board Governance- Corporate RestructuringRelevant industry knowledge:- Asset Management- Financial Services- Fintech- Retail- EducationTechnology background and education with academic focus on artificial intelligence and edtechPrevious FINRA licenses: Series 7, 63, 65
