My Story and Services

Our robust and talented team is dedicated to helping clients achieve and maintain financial independence so they can pursue what’s most important to them. We understand that people have unique values and circumstances, and we navigate each client’s goals and challenges differently to help lead them to success. Whether seeking estate and retirement planning, portfolio management, or risk management strategies, we offer extensive capability with caring service and financial clarity, backed by the resources of a top global investment firm. Our consultative process begins with an in-depth discussion of your current finances and future objectives. We use these to guide each client toward a data-driven strategic plan in which we evaluate portfolios and provide solutions. We also offer transitional counseling, working with generations of families to help ensure continuity of wealth, legacy planning, and access to resources both within and outside of Morgan Stanley to meet complex needs. We are particularly sensitive to helping higher net worth clients, and move beyond performance by maintaining regular meetings and portfolio reviews to keep us abreast of any changes or challenges, constantly tracking these against each client’s goals.
