Robert Benton

I joined Cornerstone Wealth in 2018 after spending six years at Morningstar Inc., where I managed the Back Office Services Team. As the Technology Platform Administrator at Cornerstone, I focus on integrating technology solutions that support both our team and our clients. My role includes overseeing system integration initiatives, optimizing our existing technology infrastructure, and evaluating new advancements in the RIA software ecosystem to ensure we’re always improving efficiency and delivering the best possible service.

Day-to-day, I manage everything from trading and portfolio rebalancing to custodian aggregation and performance reporting. Technology is more than just a tool for me – it’s a way to create smarter, more seamless experiences that benefit both our staff and the clients we serve. I enjoy working behind the scenes to make complex systems work together, ultimately simplifying processes and enhancing outcomes for our firm and the people we support.

Outside of work, I’ve been happily married since 2017, and we’re proud parents to two wonderful children. In my spare time, you can often find me competing in ten-pin bowling tournaments or staying informed on the latest technology innovations in our industry. Whether in my career or personal life, I’m driven by the excitement of solving problems and creating meaningful results.
