​
Currently 18, Blake Zilberman has been actively investing since he was 11 years old in 2017, gaining experience from unique times in market history such as the later end of the 2010s Bull Market, the COVID-19 Pandemic and March of 2020 Crash, the post COVID era of low-interest rates and then finally the current inflationary environment. Nonetheless, Blake achieved a 25% compound IRR through this period, significantly higher than the S&P 500’s IRR over the same period.
​
Blake spends most of his free time following his passion of researching stocks through reading 10-K’s and investor’s presentations as well as write-ups/articles on specific stocks to educate himself on different opportunities. When he is not following his passion of researching stocks, Blake has involvement in many clubs, sports teams and other programs. Blake was selected out of a field of 3,000 statewide competitors to represent the state of Colorado in the national finals of FBLA’s (Future Business Leaders of America’s) competition on Securities and Investments and achieved third place in Securities and Investments in the USA.
​
A resident of Aspen, Colorado, Blake spent most of his life living in London and New York. He though, has travelled extensively, having visited over 25 countries. A straight A student at Aspen High School, Blake values the opportunity to expand his sphere of knowledge, having attended finance-related courses at The Wharton School of Business, Columbia University, and Phillips Academy Andover.
