Vice President
and access,
Brian grew up in a small mountain town in California where he developed his love of the outdoors–golfing, hiking, fishing and water skiing in the summer and snowboarding and skiing in the winter. After nearly a decade in the Great Lakes region, he saw the light and moved south to Charlotte where he can once again spend more time outside. Brian and his wife have two young daughters who they enjoy shuttling to ballet, sports & other activities and taking on family trips. Brian joined Zabel from CapitalWorks, a Cleveland-based private equity firm. Prior to CapitalWorks, Brian worked for Worthington Industries (NYSE:WOR), a diversified manufacturing business, where he worked on mergers & acquisitions and with an internal consulting group on a variety of commercial, supply chain and operational improvement initiatives. Brian graduated from Brigham Young University with a bachelors and masters in accounting. He earned his MBA from the Kellogg Graduate School of Management at Northwestern University.
