Hello 👋
I genuinely have the best job in the world!
It takes over my life (in the best way), and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I get to work across the full spectrum of private equity and real assets, alongside some of the most thoughtful people in the industry.
At Gresham, we like to think we’re among the more creative and conviction-driven LPs out there. If you’re curious what that looks like in practice—feel free to test us!

If you’re a GP, founder, advisor, or allocator thinking about long-term value—always happy to connect. At Gresham, we work closely with managers on everything from fund design to personal wealth planning. If you’re looking for a strategic LP or just want to hear how we think, let’s talk.

Work 💼
- I lead private investments at Gresham Partners, a ~$10 billion multi-family office based in Chicago. We work with GPs and founders to turn liquidity into lasting, tax-efficient wealth—through endowment-style investing, thoughtful estate planning, and a relentless focus on compounding net returns.
- My job is to find and back the best managers in the world. That means leaning into smart risk, asking good questions, and building high-conviction portfolios fund by fund. Our team, led by CIO Ted Neild, is built for that kind of work: open-minded, curious, and comfortable operating off the beaten path.
- I stumbled into this industry about 15 years ago—shoutout to Jeff French for giving me a shot. At the duPont Trust, I had the privilege of working with two phenomenal mentors, Travis Angevine and David Gonino. Their influence still shapes how I think and lead today.
- At Gresham, I’m lucky to be part of a small, tight-knit team focused on private investments. If you ever see one of us out in the wild, come say hi—we don’t bite. (And we might just surprise you.)
Friends 🍻
- I’m lucky to have amazing friends, some going all the way back to elementary school. I’ve always subscribed to the quality-over-quantity philosophy, which has helped us stay close while still welcoming great people along the way.
- Trips have been our secret weapon. With everyone’s lives getting crazier, carving out time a few times a year to be together has been the key to keeping these friendships as strong—and fun—as ever.
Music 🎧
- I fell in love with techno and trance in the late ’90s. I still remember staying up late listening to Paul Oakenfold mixes. Electronic music has always stuck with me, even as my taste has evolved - from Tiësto and Armin in the 2000s to Lane 8 mixtapes to minimal tech more recently.
- I didn’t discover festivals until my 30s, but I’ve been making up for lost time ever since. From running around the country to chasing beats around the world, I’ve built some unforgettable memories. I went from never dancing to loving it—and I’m not looking back.
