My Mission Statement
Experience, intellectual capital and dedicated personal service to help you meet your life goals
My Story and Services
As your Financial Advisor, my partner and I at the Rosenberg Chin Group can help you define and strive to meet your goals by delivering a vast array of resources to you in the way that is most appropriate for how you invest and what you want to achieve. Working together, we can help you to preserve and grow your wealth. You will have access to some of the world’s most seasoned and respected investment professionals, a premier trading and execution platform and a full spectrum of investment choices.
Working alongside my family members in their business created a passion for the business world. I subsequently chose to pursue the field of finance in college and as a profession. While still a youth I was introduced to the power of investing, and began to understand the impact and value of having a financial advisor to assist my family with their personal and business investment decisions. Wishing to have the same impact on those who surrounded me, I joined Morgan Stanley in 2019 and focused on holistic financial planning, wealth management, and investment strategies.
I earned a Bachelor’s Degree at Fordham University, and graduated at the top of my class. I studied Finance, with a concentration in Alternative Investments, and minored in Economics. Today, combining this specialized education with my experience, I am a professional determined to assist you in achieving your personal goals and addressing all of your financial concerns. Our team does this by employing custom asset allocations, risk management and disciplined investing. Our clients are like family, and we work diligently toward helping them achieve their goals. In doing this, our clients feel comfortable relying us for all of their financial matters. This allows them to focus more on their life priorities.
In my spare time, I enjoy golfing, skiing, and giving back to my alma maters, Iona Prep, serving as a member of the board of directors, and Fordham University.

Creating Your Plan
To be truly effective, your plan must reflect the totality of your personal and financial life. My role is to help ensure that your investment objectives are consistent with your financial concerns and your long-term goals.
My four step process was developed to help you achieve that goal:
My four step process was developed to help you achieve that goal:
1. Setting Your Financial Objectives
Through a process of discovery and discussion, I will work with you to articulate your wealth goals. Together, we will examine your current and future liabilities, income sources and cash flow needs, and then consider factors that might influence your overall strategy, including tolerance for risk, tax concerns, liquidity needs and time horizon. Through careful analysis, I'll look for potential gaps that may exist between your goals, and develop sound strategies to help clear the path.
2. Creating Your Strategy
Working from my understanding of you and your objectives, we will propose a financial plan that contains specific strategies designed to help meet those goals. My advice may encompass issues such as retirement planning, business continuation, tax minimization potential and wealth transfer. You will also receive an asset allocation strategy designed to provide diversification for your portfolio.
3. Implementing Your Strategy
After discussing and refining your strategy, I'll work closely with you to bring the elements to life. Planning is a vital part of my process. Using tools to actively monitor your plans progress, making sure you are on track to meet your financial goals and objectives. If you prefer to invest in individual securities, I can help identify specific stocks, bonds and other securities that may be suitable for your portfolio. Whatever the approach may be, I'll help you keep your strategy on track.
4. Reviewing Objectives & Performance
I view ongoing communications as the foundation of my successful collaboration with you. I'll make every effort to stay aware of your changing financial needs and provide viable strategies to help you meet them. This means reviewing your portfolio together at your request when circumstances change, I will work with you to revise your strategy and reposition your assets to reflect your new needs and goals.

1Morgan Stanley offers a wide array of brokerage and advisory services to its clients, each of which may create a different type of relationship with different obligations to you. Please consult with your Financial Advisor to understand these differences or review our Understanding Your Brokerage and Investment Advisory Relationships brochure available at www.morganstanley.com/wealth-relationshipwithms/pdfs/understandingyourrelationship.pdf.
For more information, please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC Client Relationship Summary.
2When 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. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should consult their tax advisor for matters involving taxation and tax planning and their attorney for matters involving trust and estate planning, charitable giving, philanthropic planning and other legal matters.
3Morgan Stanley’s investment advisory programs may require a minimum asset level and, depending on your specific investment objectives and financial position, may not be appropriate for you. Please see the Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC program disclosure brochure (the “Morgan Stanley ADV”) for more information in the investment advisory programs available. The Morgan Stanley ADV is available at www.morganstanley.com/ADV.
4Alternative Investments are speculative and include a high degree of risk. An investor could lose all or a substantial amount of his/her investment. Alternative investments are appropriate only for qualified, long-term investors who are willing to forgo liquidity and put capital at risk for an indefinite period of time.

9An investment in an exchange-traded fund (ETF) involves risks similar to those of investing in a broadly based portfolio of equity securities traded on exchange in the relevant securities market, such as market fluctuations caused by such factors as economic and political developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The investment return and principal value of ETF investments will fluctuate, so that an investor’s ETF shares, if or when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost.
Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of an exchange-traded fund (ETF) before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the ETF. To obtain a prospectus, contact your Financial Advisor or visit the ETF company’s website. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
10Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan's investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan's flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan's investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state's own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state's tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.

Individuals should always check with their tax or legal advisor before engaging in any transaction involving 529 Plans, Education Savings Accounts and other tax-advantaged investments.
12Fixed Income investing entails credit risks and interest rate risks. When interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall.
