Alexandra Browne

Senior MD & Chief Development Officer at Lido Advisors

Alexandra Browne is the Chief Development Officer at Lido Advisors. In addition to her management duties on the executive team, she loves working face-to-face with clients. She leads a team of 15+ advisors and wealth managers spanning from the southwest to the east coast, overseeing all stages of a client’s lifecycle.

Alexandra had an unconventional and unforgettable introduction to finances – playing poker with her grandmother with a stack of pennies at the age of four. Female mentorship and financial savvy have been ongoing themes in Alexandra’s career. Alexandra studied genetics and biochemistry at Texas A&M University, where she developed a passion for analytics. After graduation, she began her career as a senior consultant in the healthcare industry. Alexandra worked directly with hospital executives and physicians across the country assisting them in building their medical programs through her analytical mind and passion for people. She felt herself being pulled in another direction, after being a successful consultant.

Determined to defy the odds and stereotypes again, Alexandra leaped from the male-dominated world of science to the male-dominated world of finance. In 2008, she switched industries to join boutique analytics and research firm that had expertise in developing quantitative methodologies for intellectual property used by the global financial and institutional community. Her work ethic and talents continued to set her apart and spur her success. Alexandra had found the industry that combined her passion with her strengths in connecting with people. At the quant shop, she worked with her team to create, design, and manage a hedge fund that was utilized by family offices across the country. Alexandra discovered another skill, a deep understanding of the needs of high-net-worth clients.
