Joe Goldsmith
A native of “Hard Hittin” New Britain, CT, Joe grew up in an entrepreneurial family as the youngest of four boys. As a result, he developed a fierce independent streak and an irreverent sense of humor, both of which have characterized much of his career. Joe attended the University of Pennsylvania, where he earned a degree in Russian, before joining Fischer, Francis, Trees & Watts (FFTW) as an Investment Professional in Emerging Market Debt and Local Currency.
Joe has continued his non-traditional career path, having founded two executive search firms over the past 18 years, one of which became one of the 10 largest search firms in the U.S. Joe lives in the West Village with his family, who continue to indulge his interest in real estate as a frustrated architect.
