About
The firm serves individuals, retirement plans, 401(k) plans, trusts and corporations and manages roughly $108 million for about 146 clients with a single advisor. It provides financial planning and consulting as well as discretionary and non‑discretionary portfolio management, and works with custodians such as Charles Schwab and Interactive Brokers to implement client accounts.
Investment decisions are guided by a conservative tactical asset allocation framework that combines fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis and typically uses mutual funds, ETFs, individual equities, bonds, brokered CDs and, where suitable, interval funds or crypto‑related vehicles. The advisor supplements its process with a wide array of third‑party research sources (for example, Bloomberg, Morningstar, S&P, CoinDesk) and may use AI tools in analyses and monitoring while generally exercising discretionary authority when authorized by the client.
Noteworthy distinctions for this firm include that the advisor, in their individual capacity, is a registered representative of a broker‑dealer and a licensed insurance agent and may implement recommendations on a commission basis and receive legacy trail commissions on older variable annuities—conflicts which the firm discloses. The firm also engages paid introducers/promoters and explicitly cites third‑party research and credentials (including a Certified Digital Asset Advisor designation) in its materials, practices that are less common among similarly sized supported firms.

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
