OUR STORY
Holly Ruxin founded Montcalm in 2012 because she wanted to bring authenticity, sophistication, and heart into financial infrastructure and into people’s lives.
For 15 years, Holly’s successful career on Wall Street included influential roles at Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and Morgan Stanley. In 2008, during the market crash, she knew that Wall Street’s unbalanced focus on making money was at risk of bringing down the entire financial system.
Also in 2008, Holly’s five-year-old son started to lose his ability to talk and walk. Over time he lost all of his fine and gross motor skills. Holly took him to the best hospitals in San Francisco and around the country. No one could help, and Trevor remains undiagnosed. Holly knew that she couldn’t figure out why her son couldn’t walk. However, she did understand money and capital markets, so she thought about how she could work within the financial industry to ultimately repair our broken socio-economic systems.
