Denver-based Cherry Creek Family Offices appointed Jason Perlioni as Senior Partner and Chairman of the firm’s Investment Committee. Prior to this move, Perlioni was the CIO of Johns Hopkins University, where he oversaw the investment program for its over $9 billion endowment and related investments.
Perlioni will work with Chief Investment Officer Corey McKiernan and Managing Partners Kevin Burke and Tim Ulfig.
Burke said, “As we continue to deepen and enhance the capabilities and expertise we deliver to our ultra-high-net-worth family clients, I’m thrilled that Jason Perlioni will join our team at this exciting time. Our continued investment in top-flight talent and solutions demonstrates our steadfast commitment to the families and their future generations that we serve.”
Before joining Johns Hopkins, Perlioni was CIO at the single family office of Pritzker Group, leading asset management. Prior to that, he served as a Director and Portfolio Manager at UBS Global Asset Management and Manager of Hedge Fund Investments at Northwestern University.
Perlioni said, “I look forward to working closely with Kevin, Corey and the entire organization to offer leadership insights and help shape the customized investment strategies we build for clients, while also amplifying our access to top institutional alternative investments that reinforce intergenerational wealth preservation and growth.”
This latest move by Cherry Creek follows the addition of Brad Sprong from KPMG as Partner, Tax and Estate Planning in late 2024, and the formation of a new strategic partnership with Midwest Trust Company in the first quarter of 2025.
Regarding Sprong, Burke said, “Brad, who is widely regarded as one of the nation’s premier family‑office tax professionals, brings specialized expertise that rounds out our leadership capabilities.”
The firm’s strategic partnership with Midwest Trust Company provides Cherry Creek with a source of permanent long-term capital and exclusive access to Midwest Trust’s personalized family fiduciary and trust services.
Cherry Creek is an employee-owned, independent investment advisor and family office to ultra-high net worth multi-generational families with more than $3 billion in client assets.
