Q: What Do You Enjoy Most About Your Job?
A: Competing and winning are the two most rewarding aspects of my job. This industry is extremely competitive and I love competing for an investor’s business and I love winning their trust over time.

Q: What Do You Hope to Achieve for Your Clients?
A: When a client says “Randy, I trust you,” it is the ultimate compliment, and it represents the stage in a relationship that I hope to achieve with all of my clients. Trust is something that is earned over time and to hear those words form the clients you represent is a special thing.

Q: How Does KARWA Approach Wealth Management Differently?
A: Periods of market volatility can really test an investor’s patience and commitment to their long-term strategy. At Kayne Anderson Rudnick, we intentionally structure portfolios to be defensive during difficult markets. One technique that I believe has been effective for us over the years involves blending alternative investment strategies together with traditional stock and bond portfolios to provide more diversification.

Q: What Are You Involved in Outside of Work?
A: I live in Newport Beach with my wife Erica. We have two dogs, Charlie and Sky, who bring a daily dose of energy, joy and entertainment to their lives. As a former NCAA Division I College Soccer Player, I enjoy all aspects of sports and fitness. I also enjoy traveling abroad and have a great appreciation for a variety of performing arts.
