Abromavage

Neil joined the CitySquash Board in 2024, but his long-time Fordham University connection has allowed him to admire the mission for over two decades. He is a Managing Director at Bank of America in the Financial Institutions Group where he leads the Financial Sponsor & Asset / Wealth Management coverage efforts. Neil played wide receiver at Fordham in the Patriot League, but has only found a small amount of that requisite speed and footwork to be even remotely relevant to his yet-to-blossom squash game. For over a decade, Neil has combined his Wall Street experience with his strong development and mentoring skills to act as Special Advisor and Program Counsel to a select group of NCAA Division 1-A / 1-AA head coaches at several major US universities. He received his B.S. from Fordham University and his M.B.A from Columbia Business School.
