A graduate of the Pennsylvania State University School of Engineering, Cole earned his bachelor's degree in industrial engineering.

After leaving the Navy, Cole obtained his FINRA Series 7 and 66 securities registrations prior to joining Seymour Gielarowski.

Cole is a Navy man. During his service, he was trained in sophisticated operations for sophisticated deployments. But what resonated with him most was that the Navy is a team endeavor. Cole learned & developed how to work with a group, solving problems collectively, and executing the mission/assignment at hand. The most rewarding aspect for Cole was achievement & excellence with all beyond individual successes. In the Navy, all ships rise together!

Outside of the office, Cole enjoys spending time with his wife Katie, their dog Tilly, and his family and friends. He is a member of the Naval Reserves and supports Submarine Group 8 headquartered in Naples, Italy. He is an avid pickleball player and strives to spend as much time as possible in the outdoors snowboarding, playing golf, or running.
