She is an experienced relationship manager who focuses on comprehensive wealth planning for clients and their heirs.
In attaining the Family Wealth Advisor designation at Morgan Stanley, Janet has demonstrated her ongoing ability to work closely with families to understand their unique circumstances-not just their finances, but also their individual and collective goals that may impact one another. Janet and her team take a disciplined, diligent approach to delivering white glove service and a standard of care that encompasses each family’s best interests and complete financial picture.
