As a founding partner of the Foundry Hill Group, Ward Good, leads with vision and intention, ensuring that every decision reflects a steadfast commitment to financial stewardship and long-term prosperity for our clients.

Ward’s investment journey began as a student in the early 80s when he stumbled across the popular economics of George Gilder and Milton Friedman. From there Carol Loomis’ famous profile of Warren Buffett in Fortune was a big influence on the new broker in ’84. As the brokerage industry evolved he recognized the added value of a consultative approach earning his Financial analyst’s charter in ’96 and moving fully into fee-based discretionary management. 

Ward’s approach is deeply personal, shaped by experience, and driven by the belief that financial success is most meaningful when it serves a greater purpose. He does not just provide investment expertise. He offers clarity, stability, and collaboration, guiding clients with confidence through every stage of their financial journey.
