Frank C. Fontana, CFA

 

Frank is the Founder and President of Banyan Asset Management, Inc.  He was raised in Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan and began his professional career in the automotive industry as an engineer.  While engineering was interesting to Frank, investing had always been his passion.  Banyan Asset Management, Inc. was created in 2002 from Frank's vision of helping others the way he has helped his family.


Frank enjoys the warm, tropical weather of southwest Florida, although he is admittedly not excited about hurricane season.  His hobbies include bowling (200+ average), golf, competitive pinball, and karaoke (especially 80's rock songs).  Frank and his wife Linda have been married since 2004 and have two sons.
