Working With You

For more than 17 years, I have helped clients simplify the complexities of managing their wealth. My advice extends to matters beyond investments, including issues related to estate planning, insurance, liability management and wealth transfer.

Most importantly, I offer advice only after getting to know you and discovering who you are. This means asking the right questions about what you value, what you want your wealth to accomplish and what you believe the challenges may be.

With access to Morgan Stanley’s vast resources, my team and I can help you organize, protect, manage and grow your wealth, so you can enjoy the lifestyle it affords.
