My Mission Statement
I work with exceptionally accomplished people in the world’s most competitive professions, helping them manage the financial rewards of their success.
My Story
What do a professional athlete, a top surgeon, a tech founder, a business owner, a C-suite executive, and endowment head, and a multi-platinum artist, all have in common?
They operate in “rare air’- where the pressure is constant, excellence is non-negotiable, and every decision carries weight. Their success brings opportunity, but also complexity. Their time is limited. Their financial lives, anything but ordinary.
For over three decades, I’ve advised individuals who lead in the most competitive arenas. My role is to focus on the signal, remove the noise, bring clarity and purpose, and design strategies as tailored as the lives the lead. Its discrete, deeply personal work that goes far beyond asset management.
I collaborate closely with their teams- Agent, legal, tax, family office-ensuring every financial decision aligns with their bigger vision. The goal isn’t just to grow wealth. Its to maximize it, protect it, and position it for whatever comes next.
Because at this level, success isn’t just about performance, its about excellence and precision.

Jim has assisted others to create succession plans to pass their business along to the next generation and transfer wealth in a way that promotes family unity and harmony.
A primary goal is always to help you enhance and preserve your wealth so you can use it to support the life you want to lead and secure the legacies you want to leave.

Morgan Stanley Wealth Management Financial Advisers can conduct their business in several ways: individually, as a member of a team of Financial Advisors, or through the formation of a Strategic Partnership with another Financial Advisor or team of Financial Advisors. A Strategic Partnership is an arrangement between a Financial Advisor or a team of Financial Advisors with another Financial Advisor or team of Financial Advisors that has a unique focus or knowledge regarding a specific business concentration, product area, and/or client type. If your account is with an individual Financial Advisor, that Financial Advisor services all facets of your account. If your account is with a Financial Advisor who is a member of a team, any Financial Advisor on the team can service your account. If your Financial Advisor is part of a Strategic Partnership, his or her role in that Strategic Partnership may be limited to a specific business and/or product area and may not cover all facets of your account. The use of the terms “Partner” or “Strategic Partner” and/or “Partnership” or “Strategic Partnership” are used as terms of art and not used to imply or connote any legal relationship.
