How I Arrived at Ritholtz

“I began my career at an insurance company Broker-Dealer, and quickly learned that it was a terrible place to be a fiduciary. I had been reading Josh, Michael, and Barry for years, and shaped our approach to advice like RWM’s. When the opportunity came, and we had the good fortune to meet the gang, it was an easy decision for all of us. We opened RWM Chicago in 2018. It’s been the best decision of my career.”

Favorite Part Of The Job

“Very little compares professionally to earning someone’s trust over time, when they share with you the things most sacred to them. It brings equal parts privilege and responsibility. I also work with the best colleagues in the world, full stop.”

When I'm Not Working

“I live in Chicago with my wife Laura, our kids, Sam and Violet, our dog Mabel, and our cats Ruben and Butters. I love to cook, and my kids would tell you I make the best pancakes. I never miss a Manchester United game, and I am a kettlebell enthusiast.”
