Also named here, with no published line of their own (reach them through the firm): Joseph Niciforo (Founding Member, Chairman of Investment Committee).

Who to call is the organisation, the person's role and the line they published themselves: a business phone, office address, website or profile link from Form ADV, Form 13F or their own website, with that source named on every value.
