Utilizing the power of assets to promote independence, financial freedom and security has always intrigued me. The ability to generate wealth through compounding led me into finance and drove me to soak in as much investment knowledge as possible. Today, as a Senior Portfolio Management Director, I understand markets can be challenging, and that the unexpected does happen. However, I also understand that proper portfolio management allows investors to stay the course in challenging times and prosper in the best of times. I value discipline, long-term thinking, and the desire to continually learn and improve. This experience, training and curiosity enable me to manage your investment portfolio on a discretionary basis and at level of sophistication required in today’s quickly changing landscape.
Combining top level wealth management and careful financial planning has allowed my clients to navigate challenging times such as the financial crisis of 2008-2009, and more recently the fallout from Covid-19. It has also allowed them to provide for a college education, help loved ones with a down payment, purchase a vacation home and retire with confidence. Proper planning and execution help minimize the emotional component that sudden wealth changes create and can enable you to make informed decisions based on probabilities, not gut feelings.
Looking back over the first stage of my career, I take great satisfaction in seeing how the long-term aspects of my work with clients have come together in terms of wealth creation and goal achievement. I feel even more privileged to have the opportunity to work with multiple generations of client families, ensuring a continuity of care for years to come.
Over 15 years as a Financial Advisor, I have evolved my practice to serve successful individuals and families in the most informed, disciplined and personalized manner possible. Modern technologies and client-centered wealth management models have helped, yet my steadfast commitment to developing trust and delivering exceptional service are how I can have the greatest influence in meeting your current goals and future aspirations.
