Welcome

About Me:
I'm a founding member of Team Global, my experience brings more than two decades of diverse financial service to the team's clients. I'm widely recognized for my contributions to the firm and the industry, and I've been named to the list of Financial Times Top 400 Advisors and included among Barron's Top 100 Woman Advisors in 2015 and 2016. I have been named one of Forbes Top Women Wealth Advisors Best-in-State in 2024.

As a designated Senior Fixed Income Portfolio Manager and Corporate Cash Investment Director, I oversee Team Global's customized fixed income portfolio management business. Drawing on my institutional experience and skilled focus, I manage high-grade fixed income and cash portfolios for individual and institutional clients.

I began my career on the debt capital markets desk at Dillon Read in 1987. As Vice President of the debt syndicate group, I work closely with corporations, investment banking and sales teams to manage bond underwritings. I moved to UBS Private Wealth Management in 1997, where I became the Director of Fixed Income Trading and Managed Rates Products for the Private Wealth Division. I formed my partnership with Ron Basu at Lehman Brothers prior to joining Morgan Stanley in 2008.
Philanthropy - St. Augustine Humane Society:
In 2023, I joined the St. Augustine Humane Society's charity board, which promotes healthy, responsible and lifelong pet ownership by serving the medical and rehabilitative needs of companion animals in our community. The goal of this charity is to ensure all pets have access to quality veterinary care, prevent overpopulation, and prevent animal suffering.

Source: Barron's.com (May 2024) 2024 Barron's Top 250 Private Wealth Management Teams awarded in 2024. The teams are ranked on a variety of factors, including their size and shape, their regulatory records and credentials of their members, and the resources they have at their disposal to serve their client bases. The rankings are meant as a starting point for clients looking for an advisor—a first-pass vetting that can help investors narrow a search. Every advisor will have his or her own approach to investing, financial planning, and other services. Clients are encouraged to approach a search for an advisor the way they would a search for a doctor—interviewing multiple professionals and getting opinions from multiple third parties. Rankings are based on the opinions of Barron's and this ranking may not be representative of any one client’s experience. This ranking is not indicative of the Financial Advisor’s future performance.

    2Investing 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.
