Thomas Brach

Building products at the intersection of finance and design.

I lead Product, Design & Strategy at Finary, where I joined the leadership team after they acquired my company, Affluent. Before making the leap to tech, I spent years in investment banking and portfolio management. I studied business, finance, and economics at HEC Paris and MIT.

I care about making complex financial tools feel simple and beautiful.
