I worked with Graham on the Raymond James Trust Investment Team for nearly a year and a half. He is extremely knowledgable in personal investing and portfolio management. This knowlegde comes from great experience in corporate money management and a keen interest in capital and debt markets both domestically and globally. At the time, Raymond James was my first experience working in the financial industry and Graham did a great job of mentoring and teaching me the ropes of the business. Moreover Graham is a great addition to any company/team, bringing not only a solid work ethic but also a passion to make any organization he is a part of better! - Blake Brown Raymond James Financial
