My Mission Statement
Experience, intellectual capital and dedicated personal service to help you meet your life goals
My Story and Services
As a financial advisor with Morgan Stanley I focus on working with a select group of senior executives, business owners and their multi- generational families. In this role I develop customized financial plans and implement investment strategies using a goals- based approach to total wealth management. My philosophy emphasizes building and preserving wealth, while remaining ever mindful of fees and taxes. I bring a comprehensive knowledge of the unique financial needs of senior executive clients. My experience includes wealth transfer strategies, executive compensation, 401(k) rollovers, pension option strategies, deferred compensation and diversification out of a concentrated position. My passion for serving business owners stems from my background as the owner of a successful media services company for more than 20 years prior to joining Morgan Stanley. Based in Chicago, I work with clients across the country and travel extensively for meetings. I am well versed on all types of insurance products including long-term care, and I hold the Series 7 and 66 securities licenses. I have earned the Certified Financial Planner designation. This is awarded to candidates who not only meet rigorous experience and ethics requirements but who successfully complete a curriculum of financial planning coursework and pass the CFP Certification Examination. Final accreditation marks proficiency in financial planning, risk management, investing, investment tax planning, retirement and employee benefits and estate planning strategies. Working closely with your tax, legal and other professional advisors I can help you design strategic and tactical solutions to help reach your long term goals. I was recently named to the 2025 Forbes Top Women Wealth Advisors Best-In-State.
I have a B.S. from Northwestern University and am fluent in Spanish. I have served on the advisory council of the Hathaway Brown School, a college preparatory school in Cleveland, Ohio where I also attended. I live in Winnetka, Illinois and have two grown sons and a daughter.
