I’m Delaware’s only professional futurist and the founder of StratFI, a boutique investment advisory firm built around a simple question: “What happens next?” Before launching StratFI, I served as lead portfolio manager for a multi-family office working with inherited wealth families. At the start of my career, I worked as a financial planner for what is now Ameriprise. Today, StratFI provides active investment management for active people — particularly professionals and retirees focused on building, preserving, and navigating long-term wealth. I work with a limited number of clients to maintain meaningful relationships and deliver a highly personalized experience. Clients receive direct access to their portfolio manager, customized investment strategies, and thoughtful guidance. All client assets are custodied with Charles Schwab. StratFI operates as a fee-only fiduciary, meaning no commissions and no conflicts of interest. To maintain a high standard of service and customization, we typically work with clients who have $500,000 or more in investable assets.

Hi, I’m Andrew! I founded Wrought Financial Planning to help entrepreneurs and self-employed professionals forge their path to financial freedom. We help our clients manage their cashflow, reduce their taxes, and grow their wealth. I’ve been interested in history, finance, and psychology since I was a kid growing up in Ocean City, New Jersey. After graduating from The College of New Jersey with honors, I began my financial services career in the alternative investment industry (private equity, hedge funds, commercial real estate and other fancy investments) first with Merrill Lynch Alternative Investments in Princeton, New York, and Boston and then with FS Investments based in Philadelphia. I grew tired of getting on airplanes for work and being away from my family so with the entrepreneurial spirit calling me I began my wealth management practice at Merrill Lynch and then I founded the independent and fee-only firm Wrought Financial Planning. I am married to my beautiful and patient wife and together we reside in Haddonfield, NJ with our two young daughters and Labrador Retriever. We enjoy traveling and sharing new experiences with my girls and being involved with their sports teams and activities. I am the Vice President and soon to be President of the Rotary Club of Haddonfield where we provide grants and scholarships to deserving organizations and underprivileged students. With whatever free time is left to me I love to read, listen to podcasts, and stay active by jogging with my dog and squeezing in a round of golf when possible.
