My Story and Services

I provide a comprehensive, goals-based approach to wealth management that begins with understanding each client and their family, their financial situation, values, and what matters most. Taking a full balance sheet perspective, I advise on both assets and liabilities to help clients make informed decisions across investments, lending, cash flow, risk management, and long-term planning. My focus is to help clients pursue their near and long term objectives while thoughtfully planning for the future and the legacy they want to leave.

Raised from an early childhood in San Francisco, I earned a B.A. in Economics and an MBA from San Francisco State University. I began my financial services career at Citibank in 2005 and spent the next 15+ years building broad experience across wealth and investment management, with roles at Wells Fargo Private Bank, Abbot Downing (formerly Wells Fargo Family Wealth), First Republic Bank, Prudential Financial, and BBVA Global Wealth. Throughout my career, I have supported teams managing portfolios for institutional and individual clients, with relationships ranging from approximately $1 million to $2 billion in assets. I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® professional and also hold the Chartered Financial Analyst® (CFA®) designation. Today, at Morgan Stanley, I draw on this background—combined with the firm’s robust platform and capabilities—to deliver highly personalized advice and a high level of service.

I live in Danville, California with my wife, Anastasiia, and our two children, Katerina and Viktor. Outside of work, we enjoy spending time outdoors—especially at our cabin in Groveland, California, near Yosemite National Park. I am also committed to giving back and value staying involved through volunteer work with local community organizations. I am also a board member and treasurer for the Epilepsy Foundation of Northern California.

When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code.
