My Mission Statement
Helping successful individuals, their families, professionals and those navigating life transitions to achieve financial independence.
My Story and Services
With over 25 years of experience, I help successful individuals, families, professionals and those navigating life transitions simplify their finances.
At the center of my process is a conversation separate from the finances, I want to get to know you and what is important to you. Through our initial conversations, I will be able to formulate the strategies that are appropriate for your needs, whether you are accumulating wealth or investing for income, solidifying your retirement plan or navigating a major life transition. For me, planning means more than providing my clients with investment advice. It means helping them maintain the financial independence they’ve worked their whole lives to achieve.
Behind my practice stands Morgan Stanley’s broader firm with meaningful intelligence about every major asset class and a presence in every major market, as well as investment research from some of the world’s most seasoned and respected investment professionals. My clients also have access to a premier trading and execution platform and a full spectrum of investment choices.

About Mary
Mary Fazio, CFP® CDFA® is a Senior Vice President and Financial Advisor at Morgan Stanley. A seasoned financial professional with over 25 years of experience, Mary approaches her relationships with gained wisdom and empathy. She believes in the power of dialogue, which helps to draw out how people feel about their financial life:
"Wealth is a sensitive topic. Helping people unpack their goals and current financial positioning enables them to uncover the unknows and ultimately provides peace of mind once we design a plan."
Mary has a particular focus on women going through life transitions, such as planning for retirement, and those facing divorce or the death of a spouse. With clear and caring communication, she strives to provide her clients with the necessary support to tackle life's toughest challenges.
Upon her graduation from Boston College in 1995, Mary joined Chase Manhattan Bank in New York City. Mary worked in Institutional Equity Research Sales for 18 years at J.P. Morgan and Oppenheimer & Co., before returning to Wealth Management in 2018 as a Financial Advisor. When she and her husband moved their family to Atlanta during the pandemic in 2020, to be closer to her husband's family, she joined Merrill Lynch Wealth Management. She joins Morgan Stanley in 2024 to further her practice.
Mary holds the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ certification, and she is a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® professional. She also obtained the Life & Health Insurance and Variable Annuities licenses.
Outside of her role as a financial advisor, Mary was one of thirty-five professionals to complete the 2024 Leadership North Fulton Program, run by the Greater North Fulton Chamber of Commerce, where she met with leaders in government, business, and non-profit organizations to learn about the region's economic drivers and contribute her perspective.
