About Me
For Neil, being a Financial Advisor is about more than finances—it is about being a steady, trusted presence as clients navigate life. He is passionate about building long-lasting relationships grounded in empathy, personal attention, and a commitment to helping clients pursue their goals through every market environment. Neil was introduced to the profession in the most personal way: his father was an investment advisor, and growing up around the business gave him a firsthand view of how rewarding it can be to help people make confident decisions. He also spent his early working years in a variety of fields—construction, music, entertainment, and hospitality—where he learned the value of listening, understanding different perspectives, and earning trust through action. Neil’s approach is intentionally personal. He aims to make clients confident, particularly in difficult moments—whether those challenges come from the markets or from life itself. He focuses on building relationships. Many clients and friends describe him as someone who cares on a personal level—because it is not “just business” to him. He also believes strongly in serving clients with the support of a broader team. While Neil brings decades of experience, he is quick to collaborate with other professionals when it benefits the client. This is a key advantage of the team model at Vista Wealth Management: continuity, responsiveness, and a depth of experience designed to support clients for years to come. Beyond work, Neil is involved in the community through The Lyceum Club of Tarrytown and The Dramatists Guild of America, and he supports philanthropic organizations including Mount Sinai and Feeding Westchester. Neil and his wife, Susanne, live in Sleepy Hollow, NY, and are proud of their sons, Joshua and Jeremy. They also share their home with Bella, their lab mix, in a beautiful setting overlooking the Hudson River.
