Welcome

Currently serving as a Financial Advisor at Morgan Stanley, I bring over 30 years of experience in the financial services industry. My practice is deeply rooted in the core values of Morgan Stanley: prioritizing clients, leading with exceptional ideas, doing the right thing, contributing to my community, and fostering diversity & inclusion.

I blend the strength of traditional methods with the innovation of modern ideas, enabling me to help uncover untapped opportunities for my clients and bring them to fruition while helping secure their future.

Beyond my professional role, I am committed to community service. My passions include the performing arts, sustainable living education, and social justice.

In my personal life, I have been married 40 years. My wife, Molly, and I have 5 adult children ranging from 22 to 40 years old and 5 grandchildren. We recently became empty nesters, a change that we are still adapting to.

My Clients and Process

When we work together, you benefit from personalized advice, objective guidance and dedication to your success as an investor. Our goals-based wealth management approach will address key areas of your financial life beyond traditional investments and may incorporate diverse recommendations for helping build and preserve your wealth. Here we’ve outline our approach when working with you:
    Icon Image
    Step 1: Setting Financial Objectives
    My process begins with a detailed conversation that identifies what is truly important to you. During this meeting, I'll ask a series of questions to provide an in-depth understanding of your personal, professional and financial situation, while educating us about your long-term investment goals, time horizon and tolerance for risk. If you own a business, we may also discuss your current cash management needs and plans for growth.

    Step 2: Developing Your Strategy
    From this ongoing dialogue, I'll analyze your current situation and begin to develop specific strategies to help achieve your goals. This analysis will address income and retirement planning, investment management, strategic borrowing, wealth transfer and business succession planning. Your customized plan will also include an asset allocation strategy designed to help achieve your financial goals in light of your risk tolerance and investment time horizon.

    Step 3: Implementing Your Strategy
    Once you’ve approved your plan, I will begin to execute each strategy, working closely with you to help ensure each of the various elements of your plan effectively integrate with one another. Wherever appropriate, I will suggest seeking in-depth advice from professionals on particularly complex issues I’ve identified, such as estate planning and tax minimization strategies. Whatever approach we implement, I will help keep your strategy on track.
    Icon Image
    Step 4: Reviewing Your Performance
    You will receive a quarterly review that outlines your portfolio’s performance, helping you track your progress. Moreover, when your personal situation or market conditions change significantly, I will suggest appropriate adjustments to your portfolio to help it remain aligned with your goals.

These are some examples of values that I believe are necessary to have in my relationships with my clients to see the most success.
    Do The Right Thing
