Momentum is building at NU Advisory Partners, and today we celebrate another step forward. We’re welcoming two exceptional hires: Jen Ringoen, our newest Partner, and Mike Faust, Associate.
In addition to expanding our national footprint, these additions will further expand our expertise recruiting and placing executive and board-level financial roles, including board audit chairs and CFOs.
At NU, we take great pride in having team members armed with diverse perspectives, a wealth of experiences, and demonstrable wins in emerging spaces. Our two newest hires have those things in spades: Jen has built her career working closely with privately-backed technology companies across enterprise software, fintech, marketplace, consumer, and blockchain. Mike’s prior role at Amazon involved bringing to life one of the world’s leading companies’ leadership recruiting strategies across business units.
Both Jen and Mike are consummate professionals with unique backgrounds. We are delighted to welcome them aboard.
