Her dedication and experience in the finance and impact arena will be incredibly additive to our ability to serve our clients and will help drive our strategy and continued growth.”
Launched in 2012, Montcalm’s approach is fundamentally unique, due to the exceptional background of Holly Ruxin, Montcalm Founder & CEO.

Holly is a deeply trained risk manager who discerns how to construct portfolios from a wider and more grounded set of investment principles and products than most wealth managers can access for their clients.
