Vestwell CEO and founder Aaron Schumm has unveiled a hire to recast his firm from a “digital 401(k) recordkeeper” to the “leading savings firm” in the nation. Schumm hired Danya Dumbrill in August to take a boil-the-ocean style objective that he first saw in his peripheral vision but is now in his cross-hairs.
“Goldman, as well as many of our investors, surfaced great candidates for us to speak with," he says. But Dumbrill was the "standout with the experience, mindset, approach, and track record we wanted ... [and she] was found by head of people Patty Kim,” Schumm adds.
