“don’t Judge a book by its cover, Objects may be closer than they appear”

Dan Frasco is not your stereotypical financial services technology leader. Comfortable partnering with C-level executives, board members, architects, vendor partners, product managers, finance teams and recent college graduates he collaborates with them all the same; on a personal level, finding a common ground and a common language to facilitate the discussion.

Dan started his career and remained with Fidelity Investments for 18 consecutive years and over 20 cumulative years. Fidelity Investments is a leading provider of investment management, retirement planning, portfolio guidance, brokerage, benefits outsourcing and other financial products and services to more than 26 million individuals, institutions and financial intermediaries.

After spending well over a decade focused solely on technology and rebuilding teams, Dan worked across all infrastructure areas putting his financial degree to good use working to define a new portfolio management model unifying all of the product teams for infrastructure. This was a valuable experience in collaboration, team unity, standardization and consolidation.

Dan left Fidelity for 2 years to help modernize the core distributed and end user compute facilities of the backbone to Wall St., DTCC where they clear $1.4 trillion per year. He was able to reorganize and put automation programs in place to help DTCC begin to launch their next phase of rebuilding.

Automation continues to be a passion in addition to seeing people reach beyond their potential and coming back to Cybersecurity during such an exciting time where software is taking over infrastructure (SDN, SDxx) is the prime place to help facilitate this integration.

Dan married his hometown girlfriend Amy from Massachusetts in 2006. They moved with their 2 girls Maeve and Quinn (10 and 9) to Lantana, Texas in 2012 and recently returned home to Belmont in 2019. Dan loves to spend every spare moment playing with his girls, cooking for them, or taking on projects.

Dan received his BA in both Computer Science and Economics from Williams College located in Williamstown, Massachusetts.
