"I am honored to join Wally and the talented team of individuals at Weitz Investments," states Boyne. "It is a great firm with a rich history, and I look forward to furthering our commitment to provide clients in all areas of our business with a positive experience that exceeds their expectations, fosters trust and continues to promote long-term relationships."

Boyne graduated from Northern Illinois University, magna cum laude, with a bachelor’s degree in marketing in 1988. He went on to study at Chicago-Kent College of Law, Illinois Institute of Technology, graduating with a JD in corporate and securities law in 1991 as a Kent Legal Scholar.
