Robert Fechtman is a lifelong resident of Indiana. He graduated from Northwestern University with a degree in music and a major in economics, and he received his JD from Rutgers School of Law. He also attended the University of San Diego’s Institute on International and Comparative Law at Magdalen College, Oxford University. In 6th and 7th grade, Mr. Fechtman went away to school to sing with the American Boychoir in Princeton, New Jersey.

MARK OLSON

In 2007, LTO Ventures founder, president, and CEO Mark Olson became the sole parent of his then 11-year-old daughter, Lindsay, who has multiple developmental disabilities and is nonverbal. He realized that he needed to plan for Lindsay’s future without him. That plan expanded in 2019 when he remarried to a woman with a teenage daughter with multiple developmental disabilities.

Mark formed LTO Ventures in 2010 to develop live/work/play communities for adults like Lindsay with autism and related developmental disabilities.
