Following his service, Russell enrolled at the University of Idaho and earned a B.S. in Education.  He taught economics and geography at Coeur d'Alene High School before his fascination with economics drew him to the financial services industry.  After working in the field for ten years, Russell attended the Wharton School of Business to earn his Investment Consultant designation.
