Fun Fact

Ethan is a lifelong Seattle sports fan, proudly backing the Kraken and Seahawks — even when it requires more patience than payoff. He captained the University of Richmond Club Ice Hockey team, leading them to their first-ever national tournament bid (and picking up a few penalty minutes along the way). A fantasy football manager by obsession and March Madness enthusiast by tradition, Ethan takes his lineups nearly as seriously as his financial models — and passionately defends his bracket strategy every March.
