Rod brings over 35 years of experience in principal investing and advising business-owning families—experience that spans both sides of the table. Early in his career he was engaged in the stewardship of a family business founded by his great-grandfather in 1879 in Peoria, Illinois. That history as a family business principal, before decades as a PE investor, gives Rod an uncommon vantage point.
Prior to joining WSP, Rod spent over 30 years with Frontenac, a Chicago-based private equity firm focused on family-owned businesses, including 22 years as Chairman and Managing Partner. He served as lead director of more than 20 private companies—many through the formation of their first institutional board—as well as director of several public companies. He currently serves on two closely held company boards. Prior to Frontenac, Rod was a member of the strategy consulting practice at Booz Allen Hamilton.
Rod is a Trustee of the University of Chicago, a member of its Investment Committee, and past chair of the University of Chicago Medical Center board. He has served on the Investment Committee of Phillips Academy, Andover for over 25 years, and is a Governor and Investment Committee member of the Evans Scholars Foundation / Western Golf Association.
