CHICAGO, IL, March 30, 2026 – Gar Wood Securities is pleased to announce the addition of Patryk Wydrych to the team in the role of Associate. In this capacity, Patryk supports brokerage operations, banking, and client services – with a particular focus on brokerage and banking as he grows into the business.

“What really matters is the people you work with. I’ve been here a short time and I’ve already learned more than I expected – and the environment here actually encourages you to ask questions. That makes all the difference.”

– Patryk Wydrych, Associate, Gar Wood Securities

Patryk studied business administration and developed an early passion for investing – opening his first brokerage account the day he turned 18. Before joining Gar Wood, he accumulated experience across automotive sales and law enforcement as a Community Service Officer, giving him a grounded, people-first perspective at the start of his career.

Outside the office, Patryk is an avid scuba diver, rock climber, and athlete. He’s driven by a competitive spirit built through years of fitness and a restless curiosity that takes him everywhere from underwater aircraft carriers off Pensacola to, eventually, great white diving in South Africa.

Patryk is based in the Chicago area and is eager to grow within the firm, with particular interest in business development and building lasting client relationships.
