Robby is an Associate on the Finance team.
Prior to joining Social Finance, Robby was an Investment and Portfolio Management Analyst at National Grid Renewables, where he focused on financial underwriting for utility-scale wind, solar, and battery storage projects. He has also worked as a Veterinary Assistant at Stoney Brook Veterinary Hospital while considering a career in veterinary medicine.
Robby holds a Bachelor’s degree in Environmental Economics and a minor in Biology from Middlebury College. In his free time, you can find him doing just about any outdoor activity with his cattle dog mix, Moose, watching Lord of the Rings, or playing padel.
Financial markets are efficient at some things and blind to others. I came to Social Finance to work on the blind spots — where better-designed capital can unlock opportunity for people and communities that the market overlooks.
