My Story and Services

Managing wealth involves far more than managing an investment portfolio. It begins with developing a holistic, comprehensive understanding of who you are and the financial forces at work in your life. It means helping you understand and respond effectively to these forces. And, of course, it means helping you invest your assets in a way that reflects the realities of your life and the uniqueness of your long term goals.

As a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® practitioner, I am committed to building a relationship of trust in which I can work closely with you to help you define your objectives, explore alternatives and choose the financial and investment strategies that are most appropriate for you. As our relationship evolves, I hope you will come to regard me as a valued resource and professional who can help you make a more informed decision on any financial issue.

The Planning Process

To reach your goals, you need a wealth plan informed by a comprehensive assessment of your current budget and finances, clear objectives and sound advice that puts you in the center of the process. I use a four-step Goals Planning System (GPS) to create your personal roadmap towards financial achievement and protection.

  • Discover: Understand your values, objectives and quantify your goals.
  • Advise: Create a tailored wealth plan to help keep you on track.
  • Implement: Add value with tax-aware and cost-sensitive capabilities.
  • Track Progress: Know where you stand and adjust to your changing needs and the environment that changes around you. Using advanced technology and years of industry experience, allows me to develop a plan that includes not only investments, but also ways to help mitigate investment-related taxes, manage your everyday finances and address borrowing needs. Plus, the I will provide regular progress updates so you can see whether your savings and spending habits are in line with your goals – making it easier for you to stay the course.
