My Mission Statement
Experience, intellectual capital and dedicated personal service to help you meet your life goals
My Story and Services
For more than 30 years I’ve helped clients and their families create roadmaps that guide them to their ultimate destinations with greater confidence. These individuals look to me for investment advice, but the roadmaps we create go well beyond their portfolios.
My approach to clients combines both earnings and savings. As a Morgan Stanley Financial Advisor, I offer access to world renowned research and experienced professionals. Together we can take the necessary steps to help my clients reach their goals. Additionally, our financial planning program is linked to our online services so clients can enjoy both the insight and security of knowing how their goals are presently being met and will also be carried out in the future. We also have a Private Banker who is familiar with my client’s balance sheet, should they need access to our suite of lending solutions.
I am a Portfolio Management Director with extensive experience analyzing the financial markets. I design and oversee my client’s vital investments, utilizing Morgan Stanley’s research and numerous other sources and specialists available to me through the firm. Once I develop an asset allocation for my client’s objectives, I implement a unique strategy that is aligned with their goals. I am proud of what I do and find no greater passion than sharing my knowledge and experience with my clients.
As a Family Wealth Advisor, I offer educational insights, retirement options, benevolent guidance, the values of trust planning, and access to unique and exclusive opportunities and experiences through our Reserved program. This enables me to offer Family Office Services to clients who normally would not have access, including planning family succession and helping secure buy/sell agreements for family businesses.
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC offers a wide array of brokerage and advisory services to its clients, each of which may create a different type of relationship with different obligations to you. Please visit us at http://www.morganstanleyindividual.com or consult with your Financial Advisor to understand these differences.
Private Bankers are employees of Morgan Stanley Private Bank, National Association, Member FDIC.
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC is a registered Broker/Dealer, Member SIPC, and not a bank. Where appropriate, Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC has entered into arrangements with banks and other third parties to assist in offering certain banking related products and services.
Investment, insurance and annuity products offered through Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC are: NOT FDIC INSURED | MAY LOSE VALUE | NOT BANK GUARANTEED | NOT A BANK DEPOSIT | NOT INSURED BY ANY FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGENCY
The term “Family Office Resources” is being used as a term of art and not to imply that Morgan Stanley and/or its employees are acting as a family office pursuant to Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
