Our Founders’ Story

The values that define Salas O’Brien today were there from the very beginning. Dan O’Brien and Carl Salas built their partnership around technical excellence, trust, and long-term thinking.

In this video, they reflect on the risks they took, the relationships that mattered, and the moments that shaped the firm’s direction. Their story is a reminder that while Salas O’Brien has grown and evolved, the ideas that shaped the firm continue to guide us forward.
