Doug Garber
Doug Garber is the host of Pitch The PM and a former senior portfolio manager at Millennium and analyst at Citadel. He was trained at Citadel by a former SAC/Point72 analyst who had worked directly with Steve Cohen before becoming a Citadel portfolio manager.
During his time at Citadel’s Surveyor Capital, Doug was ranked among the top five analysts and was the only one to receive that distinction twice, leading to his selection for PM incubation. On the Millennium platform, Doug founded Katahdin Capital where he built a multi-sector, multi-strategy business by recruiting and developing top talent across adjacent verticals.
Before his buy-side career, Doug worked in sell-side equity research, where he honed his modeling and primary research skills. He is currently the chief investment officer at the Westport Alpha Group and holds a BSM and Master of Finance from Tulane University.
