This is my 28th year in the financial services industry. For a guy who has been in the same industry for that long, you’d think I don’t have an entrepreneurial bone in my body. Quite the opposite is true. I’ve just chosen to innovate within the industry in which I operate. My wife sums it up best when telling others that “Ross is not happy unless he is working on something disruptive. But it’s usually a healthy disruption.” I’m thankful that she loves that side of me. The other side of me is best kept on the bench.

After 13 years as a mutual fund wholesaler I have bought into a financial advisory firm with 2 of my closest friends in this business. Future Bright specializes in building client accounts through mostly individual stocks and efts. We use today’s latest tools to help put our clients risk in line with the portfolio they hold. We recently launched a venture capital fund for both entrepreneurs and investors in our region (Northern Plains Fund).
