Josh Latson

With a background in finance, an immediate return to Wall Street or a foray into consulting may have been a natural career step for Josh Latson. But returning to school for his MBA gave him the time to consider what he’s passionate about — and his decision to take a fellowship in the healthcare industry at a nonprofit meant a revision of his salary expectations. By refinancing his student loans with First Republic, Josh has been able to reduce his monthly payments and focus on saving more for future endeavors, including buying a home. He appreciates the level of professionalism, timeliness and responsiveness his banker showed him throughout the process and looks forward to a continued relationship with First Republic.
