Employee Spotlight: Steven Fraley

Where is your hometown?
I was born in St. Louis, Missouri and moved out to Denver with my
family at the beginning of 2020.

Tell us something unique about you.
Not sure if it is unique or just crazy, but my wife and I took some
time off from our careers to travel. We spent six months in Asia and
Europe when our oldest son was nine months old. I truly believe that
travel provides us with incredible opportunities to learn and grow by
exposing us to diverse cultures, perspectives, and ways of life that
we do not experience every day.

What do you like best about working at Innovest?
I really enjoy the people and culture at Innovest. We have an
amazing team that always goes above and beyond for our clients,
our community, and each other. This is embedded in who we are as
a firm and makes coming to work every day very rewarding.
How do you give back to the community?

One of the great things about working at Innovest is our dedication
to the community. We typically have monthly on-site volunteer
opportunities I try to contribute to. Additionally, my wife and I are
very active in supporting our local neighborhood/community and
our sons’ schools.

What are your hobbies and interests?
At this point, most of my time is spent running our kids from activity
to activity. Right now, we have soccer, baseball, taekwondo, and
horseback riding, to keep us busy. We also love to ski and hike as a
family. When I do have time to sneak away, I am usually golfing or
hunting.

Tell us about your family.
I am very lucky to have been married to my amazing wife, Meg, for
over 11 years. We have been blessed with three wonderful and wild
sons, Charlie (5), Harrison (3), and Weller (2). All of our immediate
family is back in St. Louis, so we try to get back to visit when possible
and love to host our families in Denver. We also try to spend a lot of
time enjoying the mountains in Steamboat Springs.
What is your favorite dessert?

My favorite dessert is authentic key lime pie, you just can’t beat
it. Our favorite family tradition is walking or riding our bikes up to
Bonnie Brae ice cream!
