Josiah Waters
Josiah Waters was raised in a Christian home, attending family retreats from an early age. After a long season of pursuing professional success, he experienced a deeply personal and transformative return to his walk with Christ. He speaks openly about how the Lord met him, realigned his heart, restored his sense of calling, and led him back to a life anchored in Scripture, service, and family. Josiah is grateful for the opportunity to share his testimony and to witness to God’s faithfulness.
Alongside his renewed spiritual journey, Mr. Waters served on the Forbes Finance Council from 2022 to 2023 and brings extensive experience in cross-border capital markets, joint ventures, equity, senior and mezzanine financing, mergers and acquisitions, and leveraged buyouts. He also maintains equity ownership in more than two hundred restaurants across four national QSR brands.
Josiah currently resides in Washington, DC.
