Gordon will serve as a managing director in Skyway’s investment banking practice and will focus on adding capacity to facilitate strategic growth objectives in South Florida.

“We are happy to have Kevin on the team to help service and grow our pipeline and establish a footprint in South Florida which continues to be a thriving, growing market. His experience is deep and broad and will be a great value to our clients,” said Skyway Chairman Marty Traber.

Skyway says this will be the second satellite office for the firm which opened an office in Atlanta last year.
