My Story and Services

For me, retirement planning means more than providing my clients with investment advice. It means helping them maintain the financial independence they’ve worked their whole lives to achieve. My consultative process begins with an in-depth discussion of your current finances and future objectives. We’ll address issues you might have overlooked and determine how we can help you adjust your investment strategy to accommodate changing conditions and meet any unforeseen expenses and income demands that may arise during retirement.

The primary objective that we set for all of our clients is making sure they stay on-track to accomplish their goals. Keeping you on track requires us to monitor your portfolio, making necessary adjustments, keep you informed of important developments and navigate the many challenges that come with growing and protecting your wealth.

A partnership with us can help you achieve these goals by combining our investment management skills with our Goals Planning System. We find it brings financial order to our clients’ lives, helps them follow through on commitments and prepares them for any life transactions that may come their way.

If that makes sense to you, I would like to discuss how the Goals Planning System works.

1When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. 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.
