“I am beyond thrilled to welcome these talented professionals to the New York Region. Their fresh perspectives and passion for excellence will strengthen our team and position the firm for continued growth,” said Lou Natale, Managing Director in New York. “With the addition of Michael and Ed, we are well-positioned to better serve our clients and make a meaningful impact throughout the New York and East Coast region.”
