Meet the Founder: Chris Jennings, CFP® I founded Bronx River Advisory so that I could serve a wider variety of consumers. Most people don’t need an exhaustive, rigid plan on day one—they need a clear, objective answer to the question right in front of them, especially when navigating a major life transition. As an education-first, fee-only fiduciary advisor, I help individuals and families handle moments like career shifts, divorce, inheritances, and retirement decisions with confidence. I start with a fixed project fee to resolve immediate priorities, creating space to see what real fiduciary guidance feels like before considering long-term commitments. From there, I enter into ongoing partnerships and proactive asset management when it makes mutual sense. Background & Community Before opening our doors at 51 Pondfield Road in Bronxville Village, I spent over a decade in wealth management, including more than seven years at a national RIA where I served as Vice President. My technical work includes executive benefits, equity compensation, NY co-op and condo financial due diligence, tax-efficient IRA distribution strategies, and long-term legacy planning. My approach is grounded in my Jesuit education at Fordham Prep and the University of Scranton, emphasizing intellectual rigor, active listening, and genuine care for the individual. Outside the office, I serve on the board of Puppy Kitty NYC and support regional rescues through the Cash the Cat Giving Fund—inspired by my rescue cat, Cash. I am an active parishioner at Saint Joseph's Parish, an uncle to six fantastic nieces and nephews, an avid collector of vintage mid-century Pan Am aviation art, and always looking forward to a warm trip down to Aruba.
