My Mission Statement
My team and I acknowledge and understand the cyclical nature of the markets and life. Our holistic approach helps us ask the right questions and allows us to be the best stewards of your wealth.
My Story and Services
Our Story
As your Family CFO, we want to cover all areas of your financial health. Our discovery process and structure can require multiple, deep conversations depending on the level of involvement you would like us to have. The objective and subjective understanding we develop from our communications will then be summarized in your Financial Plan. That Financial Plan will be our working document and will serve as the foundation for our Investment Plan. The portfolio we build for you will be customized to meet your needs and objectives, so identifying those objectives is our primary goal. We feel our holistic approach enables us to ask the right questions, construct the most appropriately risk-adjusted portfolios, and allows us to be the best stewards of your wealth.

12Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate.

Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state's own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state's tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice.

Some of these factors include: the Plan's investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan's flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan's investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state's own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state's tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information.
