The difference is the undivided time and attention I give to every client along with my ability to listen to their individual needs.  My clients come to me for help in solving their unique financial and retirement puzzle.  We work hand in hand to make all of the pieces fit.  Where some advisors use an "one size fits all" approach, I take the time and ask the right questions that will help us solve complex scenarios together.

At Morgan Stanley I am part of a team of some of the best financial minds in the industry.  I can leverage our diverse selection of world-class wealth management strategies to put a plan together that fits each client's needs.  Retirement planning, tax planning, risk management, estate planning, lending strategies - these are but a few of the issues I can help you with.

Working With You

My objective is to deliver an outstanding client experience focused on innovative and flexible solutions to client's needs.

I have found I work best with individuals and families who's priorities are to build and maintain wealth with a consistent, long term approach. Comprehensive planning that incorporates all aspects of your financial life are key to this process. Sometimes this may include giving my clients information that they may not want to hear, but is in their best interest. My role is to provide open and honest communication at all times.

When I face retirement, this is what I'll expect from my own advisor. Someone who understands what I am passionate about in life. An advisor who looks at the big picture and helps me maintain perspective on the markets and my retirement. Someone who can offer me tailored advice specific to my unique needs as an investor. This is the experience I want to provide my clients!

When you work with me, you get the best of Morgan Stanley.

Clients

My clients are accomplished professionals who seek unbiased, personalized advice to help them reach financial freedom. My clients believe, as I do, in the value of building a longstanding relationship. In developing a plan together, I am committed to executing and monitoring that plan in order to help ensure that it is taking them where they want to go.

Most of my clients want to maintain a certain lifestyle in retirement. They want to be comfortable and secure. In order for us to accomplish this goal, we have to be detail oriented and thorough with our strategies. We keep our focus on the long term and not the short term and we communicate on a regular basis. Ultimately, having the confidence in knowing that your financial life is in order is priceless.

Often times, my clients want a meaningful legacy for their children or grandchildren. Leaving a legacy for the long term is something they are very passionate about. Having the opportunity to help these goals come true is what my practice is all about.

As your financial advisor, I am committed to delivering a proactive, high service practice, tailored to your individual needs.

I believe Morgan Stanley is the best place for me to serve my clients.

The coaching profession is full of passionate, dedicated people who are growing our next generation of leaders. It is a noble endeavor, and it requires a lot of time and energy in order to be successful. You have to be "all in" and give most every aspect of your life to accomplish the goals you have set for your program.

I had the pleasure to coach 27 seasons of collegiate women's basketball. During that time I experienced the highest of highs and lowest of lows, but I would not go back and change a day! It was a great experience. I had the opportunity to work with some fantastic people, experience championships and see the world.

But towards the end of my career I discovered something was missing. Unlike a CEO or small business owner, I was not being served adequately by the financial services industry. I would consider myself a professional saver and thoughtful investor, but the individual attention I received from my representative was non-existent. That's the reason I decided to target the coaching profession as a financial professional. To ensure that those who are working so hard to help prepare young people for the future, has someone dedicated to looking after theirs.

2Investors 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.
