My Story and Services

Randy began his career in 1998 after earning his Bachelor's degree from Springfield College in 1996. Randy spent a few years living in Boston after graduation before returning home to his "roots" right here in Vermont. He accepted his first job in the financial Industry with Sentinel Mutual Funds, before eventually joining forces with his father Ron at Smith Barney in 2000. After 10 years working side by side, Randy took over the business after his father retired.

One of the most gratifying things for Randy is the close personal relationships that have developed with his clients over the years. He truly enjoys sitting down with clients to understand what their specific financial goals are, and in turn developing a plan to help his clients meet and exceed their specific goals.

Randy was the Co-founder and Director of "The Autism Puzzle Foundation", a 501(c)(3) organization created to help children and families living in Vermont deal with the complexities and difficulties of being on the autism spectrum. He also helped design and build the first "Snoezelen" room (a sensory room) in Vermont called the "Imagination Station" that is located in Barre VT.

One of the reasons Randy moved back to Vermont was to be able to enjoy all of the outdoor activities his home state has to offer. His passions include hunting, hiking, golf and coaching youth sports. He lives in his hometown of Barre VT, where he married his "high school sweetheart", Stacey. They stay busy traveling to watch their twins, Payton and Brady, who compete in gymnastics and hockey respectively.

After graduating from Hingham High School, Jim attended Northeastern University in Boston and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Economics. While attending Northeastern, Jim participated in the co-op program where he worked for various mutual fund companies located in Boston. Upon graduation in 1989, Jim moved to California and worked in Sales and Marketing for the mutual fund company Benham Capital Management.

Jim was promoted in 2004 as National Sales Director for Equity Services, Inc. where he oversaw the sales and marketing for over 1500 advisors.

In 2008, an opening to join Smith Barney with The Lamberti Group presented itself, and Jim accepted the opportunity to become a Financial Advisor, fulfilling his passion to help individual investors. One of his primary roles on the team has been researching investments (Mutual Funds, Exchange Traded Funds, Closed-end Funds, Unit Investment Trusts, individual stocks, and Socially Responsible Investing).

Jim and his wife Kim have been married for 32 years and live in Barre Town, VT where they raised their two children, Allison and Jonathan. In his spare time Jim enjoys participating with a local evangelical church, boating and snowmobiling in western Maine, golfing, hiking, and enjoying all that Vermont and New England has to offer.
