Rich Marooney, Managing Director: 

Rich brings 28 years of industry experience, having worked at various firms before joining Prudential six years ago. Before his transition to financial services, Rich was a Center Manager at UPS in Connecticut. Rich's journey to financial services was deeply personal—after the untimely death of his oldest son, Ryan, due to bone cancer, Rich made a conscious decision to advocate for financial responsibility to ensure families are prepared for unforeseen events like death or disability. Outside of work, Rich is passionate about golf and is proud of his son James, who currently plays professional hockey with the Adirondack Thunder, an ECHL affiliate of the NJ Devils. Rich’s other sons, Cody and Joey, also played NCAA Division 1 hockey (University of Alabama Huntsville and University of Minnesota).
