Alex Faherty is Co-Founder and CEO of Faherty Brand, a family owned and run lifestyle apparel brand. Since its founding in 2013, Alex along with his twin brother, Mike, and wife, Kerry, has grown the brand into a nine-figure omnichannel business with over 75 stores, an ecommerce presence, and robust wholesale business with partners like Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, and numerous specialty stores across the country. Prior to starting at Faherty, Alex spent over a decade in finance focused on investment banking and private equity. Formerly a football player at Yale, Alex takes a coaching mentality in how he runs the business, knowing that so much of a brand's success is who makes up the team. When he has time, and isn't coaching T-ball, he loves to get out and surf. Alex has a BA from Yale and lives on the Jersey Shore with his wife and two children.
