He serves on the NYCHA Sustainability Council and has served on the board of directors of Trove. His work alongside the team at PVG has enabled clients to access billions of capital for climate solutions.

Prior to PVG, Tony was a Principal at Centerbridge Partners where he made private equity and distressed credit investments, primarily in the technology sector.

Tony is a graduate of the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the M&T Program at the University of Pennsylvania, summa cum laude, with degrees in engineering and economics. He enjoys using the language of finance to render difficult strategic questions clear. That, and strength training, reading Neoplatonist philosophy, and watching Liverpool football. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife.
