Charlie continued, "Steve Haberstroh, my son and Partner at CastleKeep, has known Mike for nearly ten years and has spent time with him in social, professional and community environments. When Mike shared his vision for the next phase of his career, Steve knew CastleKeep would be a perfect fit. While Mike brings with him a wealth of investment experience, it's what Steve has seen Mike do within the community truly sets him apart from other candidates." Mike resides in New Canaan, CT, with his wife Taylor and four children, Ryan, Matthew, Alex and John all of whom attended New Canaan Public Schools. He is a Founding Member and current Chairman of the Board of the New Canaan Athletic Foundation, a public-private partnership with the Town of New Canaan.

Mike Benevento said, "Having explored multiple opportunities across the wealth management spectrum, I can confidently say CastleKeep is a world class investment firm. It combines all of the capabilities of a global private bank, but delivers solutions to clients without bias and the bureaucracy that comes along with larger organizations." When asked about transitioning from managing institutional investment capital to working directly with individuals and families Mike said, "Helping people has always been core to my principles. I spent the first thirty years working to support my family. At CastleKeep, I look forward to helping clients support theirs."
