Working With You
As your dedicated wealth management advisor, my role is to tailor a personalized financial strategy which fits your needs. In our experience working with clients, we have developed a step-by-step approach to service:
Discovery Process
I take the time to fully understand you and your family – whether you’re planning for retirement, purchasing a home, or living out your golden years – I consider virtually all of your challenges, goals, and aspirations when building your financial picture.
Forming Your Strategy
Using your life goals as our compass, I create a risk-balanced strategy which maps a clear path to helping achieve your success.
Implementing Your Plan
I apply extensive research and analysis, and also utilize Morgan Stanley’s full suite of resources, to help ensure swift decisive action in all market scenarios.
Measuring Your Success
I check in with you to deliver metrics around your portfolio, and ultimately measure trajectory towards your goals. My ultimate mission is your success and well-being.
Financial Planning
Regardless of what stage your life is in - moving ahead in your career, enjoying retirement, or somewhere in between - as your Financial Advisor, I can help you achieve your financial goals. Using a suite of tools that includes goal-specific analysis, I can work with you to create a realistic, holistic strategy that integrates the various aspects of your financial life, including your investments and cash management needs. I can create your personal roadmap to help achieve and protect your goals — a framework that makes the connection between your life goals and your financial resources, and provides a baseline for future discussions.

Manage Debt
I thoroughly review your mortgage, car loans, credit cards, and any other debts that you may have in order to help determine where you can save on interest and create a timeline for your debt payments by prioritizing which ones should be paid off first.
Insurance
I take an extremely close look at your financial profile to decipher what type(s) of insurance most fit your needs, and determine if your current insurance policies are best suited for you and your goals.
Retirement
Leading up to and through retirement, I help you identify the most appropriate ways to obtain the income you need and help ensure that you are on track to achieve for financial goals.
Estate Planning Strategies
Regardless of your current financial circumstances, it is crucial to have a backup plan for your money. I regularly review your finances with you and coordinate with your estate attorney to help ensure that your wishes are met in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible.
Managing Investments
I take care of your retirement accounts and other investments based on your comfort level with risk and your current tax circumstances, tailoring your financial strategy to your unique situation, needs, and goals.

Non-profit work has been a part of my life since the early 90’s and giving back to my community has shaped me into the person that I am today.
Big Brother’s Big Sisters of New Hampshire
I’ve served on the BBBSNH Board of Directors since 2008 and after all of these years, I’m even more passionate about raising money for the organization. The work that Big Brothers Big Sisters of New Hampshire does for the children of NH literally changes their lives. I’ve seen this positive impact that matching a child with a mentor does and it’s truly amazing.
I’ve combined my love of music with the work that I do for BBBSNH by producing and playing in concerts that raise money for the agency.
Every child needs a mentor… Who was yours?

4Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods. The returns on a portfolio consisting primarily of sustainable or impact investments may be lower or higher than a portfolio that is more diversified or where decisions are based solely on investment considerations. Because sustainability and impact criteria exclude some investments, investors may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunities or market trends as investors that do not use such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.
