Mateo Thacher serves as Director of Marketing of Pave Finance, Inc. He works across sales, design, and customer success teams to build Pave's market presence, drive top-of-funnel pipeline, and develop the data systems that help the company pursue, analyze, and track growth.

Mateo holds a dual degree in Economics and Music from the Claremont Colleges, graduating from Claremont McKenna with a major in Economics and completing his Music major at Pomona College. Prior to Pave, he served as Student Manager of the Green Consulting Team at the Roberts Environmental Center, leading projects in ESG investing, forest carbon offsets, and environmental education. He also spent time composing and producing music for film and working in studios across New York City and Southern California, bringing the same quantitative and creative thinking to marketing that he developed across both fields.

Pave's blend of financial industry leaders and ambitious tech-driven builders, united around making wealth management more accessible, is what drew Mateo to the team. Outside of work, he continues to compose music for film and enjoys time outdoors surfing, rock climbing, and camping, shaped in part by growing up on his family’s citrus farm in Ojai, California.
