I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona. Grew up camping, riding bikes, swimming, making friends and appreciating the beauty of the desert. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelors of Science in International Hospitality Management. This curriculum sparked my interest in finance. After graduation, I worked for the Four Seasons Resort in Scottsdale as an Operations Manager and then I progressed to the Accounting Team. Early in my career, I spent a significant amount of time studying investments and markets. I lived through the Global Financial Crisis, which shaped my perspective on risk, uncertainty, and long-term planning. That period motivated a continued focus on learning and professional development. Along the way, I have followed and studied a variety of well-known thinkers, including Jim Rickards, Raoul Pal, Chris Martenson, Jack Bogle, Jim Bianco, Jeff Gundlach, Darius Dale, Ray Dalio, among others. I later joined Vanguard, where I spent nearly nine years working with clients, primarily as a financial advisor within the Personal Advisor Services group. During that time, I worked with clients on planning and investment decisions within Vanguard’s established framework and philosophy. In mid-2022, I resigned from Vanguard on good terms to establish my own firm, CRB Strategic Services LLC. Today, my work is centered on helping clients think about wealth across multiple dimensions, including financial, material, knowledge, and personal well-being. My approach reflects an interest in long-term planning, adaptability, and thoughtful decision-making in an environment that can change over time. CRB Strategic Services is designed to provide personalized financial guidance, with a focus on understanding each client’s unique situation and helping them navigate important financial decisions. I look forward to connecting with you. Please click the contact button to get in touch for a complementary consultation.
