NEW YORK, Jan. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Brown Advisory, a global, private and independent investment management and strategic advisory firm, is pleased to announce that Scott A. Carlson has joined as a senior advisor in its New York office.

Mr. Carlson most recently served as the president and chief executive officer of the family office of Glenn H. Hutchins, one of the world's leading private equity investors. Mr. Carlson provided investment, legal and operational advice that helped the Hutchins family achieve their short- and long-term goals.

Prior to his work with the Hutchins family, Mr. Carlson served as a managing director at CIT, where he worked with a number of large and complex, cash flow-distressed accounts. He also established Western NIS Enterprise Fund, a $150 million private equity fund focused on investing in private companies in the former Soviet Union. Mr. Carlson is a graduate of Washington & Lee University and earned his M.B.A. at Harvard Business School.

At Brown Advisory, Mr. Carlson will work with individuals and families to help them create custom portfolios that align with their long-term performance targets and risk tolerances. "I'm excited to be joining a firm that is committed to putting its clients first," says Mr. Carlson.
