Walter holds a PhD, MPhil, and MA in Physics from Columbia University, and a BS in Physics from Stevens Institute of Technology.
Walter has been an active member of ChicagoFIRST for many years, carrying membership across transitions through several firms, and was always excited for the opportunity to give back and serve the organization.
