List of Small/Medium Investment Management Firms in Orange County?

Hi all,

Recent graduate here looking for recommendations on investment management companies based/with office in Orange County (preferably Irvine/Mission Viejo area). I have some WM internship experience but don't really have any financial modeling experience, so smaller companies or satellite offices would be great. Looking for positions involving heavy research/report writing/independent work with opps. for training and possibly CFA sponsorship. I'm A OK with a lower starting salary (40-55K).

Thanks in advance.
