He serves on Occidental College’s Board of Governors as Vice President of the Philanthropy Committee, and on the Advisory Board of Joran Partners, a boutique private-market secondaries advisory firm based in Switzerland.
Outside of work, Sid enjoys cooking Indian and Thai cuisine, mixing craft cocktails, and playing tennis and golf. As a Global Girls Glow Board Member, he brings analytical rigor and a global perspective to the organization’s mission, with a focus on expanding opportunity and amplifying the impact of girls around the world.
