I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in International Studies from Emory University and have earned the Wealth Advisor designation. As a Wealth Advisor, I am eminently qualified to provide highly personalized wealth management services to my clients.
As a pioneer in the field of Socially Responsible Investing, I believe that optimal wealth management is about aligning lifestyle, values and aspirations. To that end, I educate my clients and guide them towards investment strategies that merge these very personal elements.
During my career, I’ve been recognized for my accomplishments in wealth management, including being named to the Executive, President’s and Chairman’s Clubs, as well as the Charlie E. Merrill Circle, while at Merrill Lynch.
Outside the office, I'm active in the community, giving time, attention and resources to many organizations. Some closest to my heart include Identity Youth Services, Jewish United Fund, Keshet, Kingswood United Methodist Church Food Pantry/Dinners, Misericordia, Mothers Against Senseless Killings, and Orot Center. My husband, Larry, and I reside on Chicago's North Shore, where I was born and raised. In my free time, I have a passion for the culinary arts, which I have studied in France. I also enjoy golf, hiking and Chicago Bears football.
A 38-year veteran of the financial services industry, Mark is passionate about investing and research. He is a Certified Portfolio Manager (CPM®), a new designation offered through Columbia University and The Academy of Certified Portfolio Managers. While trained in all aspects of financial planning, including a certification as an Estate Planning Specialist, Mark focuses on our clients' investment portfolios. As such, Mark ensures that investment strategies are aligned with our clients' goals and objectives.
Mark serves as national board chair of Mikva Challenge, a nonprofit that was founded on the premise that youth voice and participation matter, and that civic and political life will be stronger when youth participate and help shape their own destinies. Currently serving over 130,000 students annually, across 9 states and the District of Columbia, Mikva alumni have gone on to elective office and continue to actively engage in the civic life of their communities.
In addition, Mark is a board member of the Albert Pick Jr. Fund, a foundation that supports small community Chicago nonprofit organizations in the areas of civic and community building, culture, education, and health and human services.
