Job Info:
After 8 years at Credit Suisse First Boston and 12 at Salomon Brothers and it's various incarnations (most recently Citigroup), I'm now trying to start my own investment management business with a few friends. So far it's all cost and no revenue, but we are having fun.
Spouse Info:
Roxanne (Petersen) Richards, originally from Schleswig, IA. ISU grad in 1981. Married 24 glorious years!
Family Info:
William (20) is going into his junior year at Brown and is on the Brown sailing team. Lauren (18) is off to Yale this fall having just graduated from high school. She also just won the National Championship in rowing. Jonathan (15) is going to be a sophomore at The Branson School and is into fencing. This is the weird sport family!
Bio:
After 12 years in London, we moved to San Francisco in 2001. We're still getting used to it! Forget the laid-back image - some Californians are the most uptight people we've ever met! Whinging aside, we love the weather and the ability to get outdoors on a regulare basis. Both Roxanne and I have picked up road biking again and are trying (desperately) to get back into something resembling "shape". We get back to Ames occasionally (my parents are still there) and we also still go camping in Northern Minnesota every year.
