Currently, Carolyn is focused on enhancing services to ultra-high net worth, multi-generational client families through CIBC Family Office.

While under her marketing leadership, the firm earned more than 30 industry awards, becoming the most awarded firm by Private Asset Management.​

Prior to joining CIBC Private Wealth in 2005, Carolyn was a development associate for the Alexander-Tharpe Fund Inc., the fundraising arm of the Georgia Tech Athletic Association.
