Sholom Announces CFO Leadership Transition as Dave Berryman Retires and Doug Wyckoff Named Chief Financial Officer

Posted on October 1, 2026 by LeadingAge Minnesota

Sholom, a nonprofit senior care organization serving the Twin Cities, announced a planned transition in its financial leadership.

Chief Financial Officer Dave Berryman will retire effective October 2, 2026, following more than 10 years of service to Sholom. Doug Wyckoff, currently Vice President of Finance, will assume the role of Chief Financial Officer effective October 4, 2026.

Berryman has played an important role in strengthening Sholom’s financial position and supporting the organization through significant periods of change and investment.

Among his accomplishments, Berryman led the refinancing and restructuring of Sholom’s debt obligations, resulting in significant savings and strengthening the organization’s long-term financial position. He also led the sale of the Menorah Plaza apartment building, generating critical resources that enabled Sholom to reinvest in its infrastructure. Berryman’s leadership was especially significant during the COVID-19 pandemic, when senior care organizations faced unprecedented operational and financial challenges. His financial stewardship helped Sholom navigate those pressures while remaining positioned to continue serving residents, families and the broader community.

“Dave has been a trusted colleague, valued business partner and an important member of Sholom’s leadership team for more than a decade,” said Jim Newbrough, Chief Executive Officer of Sholom. “His thoughtful approach to financial stewardship has helped strengthen our organization and prepare us for the future. We are deeply grateful for his leadership, commitment and many contributions to Sholom, and we wish him all the best in his retirement.”

Wyckoff’s appointment represents a continuation of experienced financial leadership from within the organization. A certified public accountant, Wyckoff has more than 15 years of experience in the senior living industry, including 12 years at Sholom. Prior to joining Sholom, he worked on the health care assurance team at CliftonLarsonAllen.

During his tenure at Sholom, Wyckoff has strengthened internal controls and financial policies, helped lead several system implementations and grant reporting processes, and served as the financial liaison to Sholom Foundation. Under his leadership, the finance department has maintained a long-tenured team along with a strong track record of clean audits and compliance.

“Doug brings an exceptional combination of financial expertise, senior living experience and deep institutional knowledge to the CFO role,” Newbrough said. “Having spent 12 years at Sholom, he understands our organization, our mission and our strategic priorities. His leadership will provide valuable continuity as we continue investing in Sholom’s future and strengthening our ability to serve our community for generations to come.”

The transition comes as Sholom continues to make significant investments in its people, technology, infrastructure and senior care communities to strengthen the organization for the future. Sholom has begun celebrating Berryman’s more than decade of service this last week of September while Wyckoff transitions into his new role.
