Welcome

Nathan joined Morgan Stanley in February 2008 as a Client Service Associate.  While a Client Service Associate he earned his security licenses, Series 7 & 66.  His primary role as a Client Service Associate was to assist more than 500 clients with their day to day needs.    As a lifelong learner, Nathan felt it was important to further his understanding of portfolio construction and risk management.  In 2011 he successfully completed the Consulting Group Analyst training program where he learned the science of portfolio construction and asset allocation.   In August 2012, Nathan decided it was time to take his career to the next level as a Financial Advisor.  Nathan’s previous experience has helped develop a Process Based Wealth Management philosophy and Service Model.  He works closely with his clients to develop long term relationships built on trust, understanding and meeting the needs of his clientele.  When asked about success, Nathan had this to say, “My client’s success is my success.  If my clients succeed in reaching their financial goals, I will have done my job and succeeded as their Financial Advisor.” Nathan graduated from the University of La Verne in 2008 with a BS degree in Business with a Finance concentration.  While at ULV, he was a 4 year letterman on the Leopards Golf team.  He was a part of 3 NCAA Championship team appearances culminating with a 2nd place finish in his senior season.  On an individual basis he earned 2 All-American awards as well as 2 Academic All-American awards.   Nathan is still an avid golfer, but spends most of his time with his family, friends and giving back to the community.  He serves as a Volunteer to the German Shepard Rescue of Orange County and as a Volunteer to Covina Rotary’s annual Field of Valor; honoring the Men and Women who serve in the United States Military.

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.

When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change.

14Investing 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.
