Robert Zigmond, MBA

I am an MBA graduate seeking to break into the world of finance as an analyst or junior financial planner. When I'm not working, I enjoy hanging out with my wife and 2 dogs either working out, cooking, or planning our next travel destination. Currently, we are set to explore Ireland, India, China, and eventually see all 30 MLB Ballparks. (I'm so lucky to have a wife that likes baseball.) I consider myself to be a perpetual learner. Working a normal schedule often is not enough for me, so I'm always looking to tackle new learning opportunities that increase my financial acumen. I completed my MBA while becoming an effective retail manager. Now, I am ready to further my career in finance with a CFA designation. (Level I completed December '17, results pending.) My ultimate career goal is to be in a position to help educate and prepare others tackle their own financial goals. I myself, like many others, did not learn personal finance through traditional education methods. Skills such as budgeting, saving consistently, and long-term investing need to be known by everyone if they plan on having a meaningful retirement. I want to help others achieve that dream.
