“Identifying an issue in such a broad industry like finance and investing, and being able to come up with a solution, is an opportunity that we didn’t want to pass up.”Ari Wax ’23SB (Finance, Information and Decision Sciences)
This past summer, Kenneth Book interned at Goldman Sachs and marketed derivatives as part of their investment banking division. Book recruited his software engineering co-worker from Goldman Ben Litvin and Ari Wax — in their respective roles as CTO and COO — to join fintech startup Fluid Markets, where he serves as co-founder and CEO. Wax is also the founder of study-abroad program Aloha Aviv, which granted nearly 50 Jewish college students the opportunity to spend their Spring 2021 semester in Honolulu, Hawaii.
