Keynote Speaker: Rob Outtrim '03 (Vermont Academy) | Wealth Management Advisor, First Vice President at Merrill Lynch Wealth Management
Rob Outtrim earned his business degree from Saint Michael’s College and began his career with Merrill in 2011. With a particular focus on planning, Rob develops customized strategies for retirement income planning, wealth transfer, and educational saving to help business owners, professionals, and multi-generational families accomplish their financial goals. Rob is passionate about helping clients understand how markets work so that they can make educated decisions that align with their long-term plans, rather than knee-jerk reactions based on short-term market movements. 

Prior to Merrill, Rob was a competitive freestyle skiing coach for Stratton Mountain School in Vermont, where he coached some of the sport’s best young skiers. Today, Rob remains an avid skier, hiker, cyclist, and runner. He and his wife Heidi live in Guilford with their son Brody and daughter Rylee.
