My Mission Statement
Our process is designed to integrate your investment objectives with other pressing financial concerns and desired aspirations by looking at the totality of your life.
Welcome
With over 35 years in the industry, I offer you a seasoned professional who is competent to assist you in making potentially life changing financial decisions.
After graduation from Manhattan College with a Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering, I chose to combine my strength with math and numbers with my desire to help people, making a career in financial advising the perfect career to pursue.

Outside of the office you can find me on the golf course, in my nook, where I love to read and learn about the history of the world, or out to dinner with my wife, Jennifer, who I've been happily married to for 29 years.

Check the background of Our Firm and Investment Professionals on FINRA's BrokerCheck.*
My wealth management process starts with you; your priorities, investment objectives, and long-term financial goals. Taking a holistic view of your financial life, I bring the key elements together into a coordinated strategy aligned with your overall wealth plan.
As your goals and circumstances change over time, my process is designed to adapt so your plan stays aligned with what matters most to you. Through these four steps, I can help provide you with peace of mind for you and your family for generations to come.
Step 1: Discovery Meeting
The most important step of all, our discovery meeting will allow me to learn about you in a safe space. Understanding your unique situation and goals is key in delivering the most personalized advice and strategies to make the most of the wealth you have worked so hard to build.
Step 3: Bringing the Plan to Life
With our financial plan confirmed, a critical step comes into play- sticking to the plan. Sticking to the plan will allow us to see tangible progress toward bringing your goals to life and improving your financial well-being. There is nothing I enjoy more than watching clients enjoy the fruits of their labor through consistency and perseverance.
Step 2: Creating a Financial Plan
Once I understand your goals, priorities, and the future you want to build, my team and I develop a personalized financial plan designed to support your needs today and over time. We'll review the plan together, refine it based on your feedback, and align it with realistic, achievable milestones so it can evolve as your life and objectives change.
Step 4: Regularly Updating the Plan
The fact of life is that things change. With the constant changes going on in your life, adjusting the plan to mirror change is a major priority. We will meet regularly to discuss the progress we've made towards reaching your goals, and in the event of a major event, we will meet as soon as possible. Through these four steps, I can help provide you with peace of mind for you and your family for generations to come.
With speakers across the firm, myself and the firm are committed to keeping you informed and educated on your financial journey.

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.
