Robert has held assistant portfolio manager and analyst positions and has experience at The Abernathy Group, Legacy Capital Management, and Credit Suisse.

Robert has leveraged his experience on both the buy-side and sell-side of finance, and has had opportunities to work in both the credit and equity markets to gain a unique perspective of how markets work together and can offer contrary signals. His experience in communicating analysis to some of the largest investment managers in the world, working as a generalist at a hedge fund, and to helping manage portfolios on the buy-side have helped give him a wide-ranging perspective on investing and identifying market mispricings and what they mean for stock and credit research, and for overall asset allocation and portfolio strategy.

Robert is a CFA Charterholder and member of the CFA Institute. He received a B.S. in business administration with a concentration in finance and a minor in philosophy from Northeastern University in Boston.
