Zahner says in a statement. “With his industry experience and expertise, he immediately bolsters our Valuation team while providing in-market support to our clients and the legal and financial community.”
In addition to professional expertise, Frank has strong ties to the community, serving on the State College of Florida Foundation’s asset management committee, Sarasota County school board’s financial advisory committee and Charlotte Community Foundation’s finance and audit committee.
“Upon meeting Atticus, it was immediately evident that he was not only well-suited for the role from a skills and expertise perspective, but also from a personality and client service perspective, a mix that we value highly in our firm and culture,” Zahner says. “Of note, Atticus is highly engaged in the community, and we are pleased to partner with him as he continues to develop those relationships.”
