Greenway Wealth Advisors, LLC

Nick built Greenway Wealth to solve a specific problem: high-earning professionals had incredibly complex financial lives, but the traditional advisory industry was only offering them generic, fragmented advice, or sales focused product pitches. He serves as the visionary behind the firm’s "Personal CFO" model, designing the overarching wealth and tax strategies that convert high-velocity income into permanent independence. Before founding Greenway in 2018, Nick honed his institutional investment expertise at Vanguard and later opened the Charlotte office for a California-based independent advisory firm. A proud graduate of Miami University, he earned his CFP® certification in 2010. Outside the office, Nick is deeply embedded in the Charlotte community. He has volunteered at Brookstone School and served on the Family Advisory Council at Levine Children’s Hospital.
