Benjamin C. Sullivan

After an undergraduate career that took him from New Orleans to Spain to Dallas and back to hurricane-battered New Orleans, Ben Sullivan joined Palisades Hudson Financial Group LLC just in time for the storm of our 2007 tax season.

Ben graduated from Tulane University's Freeman School of Business in the spring of 2006, less than a year after Hurricane Katrina flooded the city and closed the campus. Ben spent the first semester of his senior year as a guest student at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, which opened its doors to many Tulane students displaced by the storm.

But after just one semester at SMU Ben returned to New Orleans to complete his studies. He helped re-establish the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program, where he had prepared tax returns during the pre-storm season of 2005. In his work at the program during his senior year Ben supervised on-site volunteers and helped direct a training program for 50 new VITA tax preparers.

Ben spent the autumn 2004 semester studying at ICADE, Universidad Pontificia Comillas in Madrid, Spain. He took courses in international finance and management, which were applied to the degree he earned from Tulane in Finance and Legal Studies in Business. Ben was a magna cum laude graduate at Tulane, where he was a member of the Phi Eta Sigma Honor Society.

Ben worked for American International Group as an accounting analyst before joining Palisades Hudson. Ben grew up in East Hanover, N.J., and attended Hanover Park High School.
