I am a born Bostonian, lived here all my life, and a married father of two.
I have 19 years of experience in back office operations in the wealth management space. Ten of those years have been spent within performance analytics, primarily on the First Rate platform – both client side and now managing a team of five analysts here at First Rate.
During the last 10 years, I’ve participated in client conversions and de-conversions, upgrades, business transformation, internal/external audit reviews, and managed multiple operational workflows concurrently outside of just performance, e.g., fees, pricing, and asset set up teams alongside a performance team.
Fun fact: I am not related to MLB Hall of Fame catcher Johnny Bench of the 1970s Cincinnati Reds. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked about my relation to him growing up.
