As one of the country's most trusted and respected financial advisory firms, the demand for Telemus services keeps growing. To continue to provide the highest level of service for our clients, we are excited to welcome the following new team members:

Kirill Vorobeychik, CPFA, joins us as a Senior Financial Life Advisor. Kirill’s addition to the Telemus team resulted from the acquisition of Ketoret Capital, which he founded in 2022.



"After a rigorous process to identify a strategic partner, I felt there was a great fit with a team that had the same level of commitment to client care that our clients have become accustomed to."

With over 20 years of experience in financial services, Kirill's incredible journey started in 1996 when he graduated from Kharkov State University in Ukraine with a double major in economics and foreign languages. Eager to pursue his passion for finance, Kirill made his way to the United States. He kicked off his career at La Salle Bank in Park Ridge, Illinois, in 1997 and then joined the operations department of Smith Barney in Oak Brook, Illinois, in 1998. Kirill's thirst for knowledge led him to attend Applied Mathematics and Financial Accounting courses at the prestigious University of Chicago Graduate School of Business.

Beyond his professional achievements, Kirill cherishes his family, philanthropy, and staying active. He is a devoted student of Jewish sacred texts, history, and investments. Kirill, his wife Mary, and their son Shaya proudly call Lincolnwood their home and actively engage with the vibrant local Jewish community.

Teresa Roberto has come on board as Client Service Manager at Telemus, bringing a wealth of experience and expertise to the role. She was previously at Ketoret Capital as COO, having collaborated with Kirill Vorobeychik since 2019 when she was the Analytics Director for Kirill's team at Merrill Lynch.
