Working With You
I use a four-step process to uncover your most important goals, so that, I may design and implement appropriate strategies to help plan for your future.
Listen and Understand
I will begin with an in-depth conversation where I will listen carefully to understand what is important to you, your family, and your legacy. I learn about the values that shape your decisions and identify any challenges and circumstances unique to your situation.
Analyze and Assess
Next, I will review your current and future financial situation, determine the likelihood of reaching your goals and address any potential shortfalls or the impact of unexpected life events. In this step, I may also contact your CPA and estate attorney to understand your existing estate plan, so I can help ensure the strategies I recommend are cohesive and fully coordinated.
Propose and Implement
Here, I will present a tailored wealth management plan with specific strategies designed to achieve your particular goals. Upon your approval, I will set into motion a course of action that strives to align your values and vision.
Monitor and Adapt
I will oversee your performance towards your goals through ongoing calls and meetings. I may recommend adjustments over time, due to changing market conditions or changes in your circumstances, to help keep you on track towards achieving your goals.
