Three Senior Hires At US Multi-Family Office

GenSpring has made three family office appointments in Washington, DC, and California.

GenSpring Family Offices has made three senior hires from The George Washington University Investment Office, EY and Wilmington Trust.

Jennifer Cobleigh has been appointed as a senior family investment officer in Washington, DC. Cobleigh's responsibilities include investment policy formation, client asset allocation and portfolio management, investment manager selection and client portfolio performance reviews.

Before joining GenSpring, Cobleigh was a senior investment officer at The George Washington University Investment Office and part of the team that managed the university’s $865 million pooled endowment.

Meanwhile, Russell Sanders has joined as a senior family wealth advisor, also in Washington, DC. Sanders has a strong background working with wealthy families and family offices, GenSpring said. He was previously an executive director in Ernst & Young’s Private Client Services Group based in McLean, VA.

Lastly, Michael Wu has been named as a senior family investment officer, working with clients in the western region across Costa Mesa, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Wu spent the last ten years as a senior investment officer at Wilmington Trust. At GenSpring, he is reunited with his former Wilmington Trust colleagues, Alan Bonde and Jan Vega, who joined GenSpring two years ago. The three will work together in GenSpring’s Los Angeles family office.
