I specialize in helping clients with Tax-Efficient Retirement Planning and Investment Management. I can help you: (1) assess your overall retirement preparedness, (2) design an actionable and easy-to-understand plan to achieve your goals, (3) develop an investment strategy that matches your specific needs and preferences. Over the past 15 years in the wealth management industry, I had an opportunity to work at one of the most prominent investment management firms, a boutique firm that focused entirely on stock research and later at one of the top regional RIA firms. I also co-founded a wealth management group that was later acquired by a CPA firm. In his previous role as the Chief Investment Officer (CIO), I directed the management of over $350,000,000 in assets on a discretionary basis for over 150 individuals, families and trusts. I developed numerous financial plans for a diverse group of clients which gave me a deep understanding of what is needed to create a personalized and comprehensive plan.
