SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / July 1, 2025 / Whittier Trust is pleased to announce the addition of Ted Fogliani as Vice President of Business Development in the firm's San Diego office. A veteran entrepreneur and former CEO with over 25 years of experience building successful companies in eCommerce, SaaS, manufacturing, and logistics, Ted brings a dynamic mix of strategic vision, operational leadership, and a deep-rooted commitment to client service.

Throughout his career, Ted has championed the idea that long-term value is built by hiring great people and rallying them behind a clear vision. At Whittier Trust, he'll focus on fostering meaningful relationships with families and founders across Southern California, helping them navigate the complex intersection of personal wealth and business leadership.
