About
The firm provides wealth management, financial planning, and investment management to individuals, high net worth clients, trusts, estates, businesses, and retirement plans. Services include portfolio construction using mutual funds, ETFs, individual stocks and bonds, ongoing investment supervision, and retirement plan advisory work (including 3(21) and 3(38) services).
Investment decisions are informed by both fundamental and technical analysis and are generally implemented with a long-term orientation, while allowing shorter-term trades for rebalancing or to meet client needs. The advisor works with clients through continuous personal contact to define goals, risk tolerance, and investment strategy, and monitors portfolios regularly to align with those parameters.
Compared with many peers, the firm manages a meaningful non-discretionary sleeve alongside discretionary assets (approximately $241.3 million discretionary and $66.2 million non-discretionary as of December 31, 2025), which is less common among supported firms and reflects a larger-than-typical share of client-directed accounts. The advisory team also holds multiple retirement-plan credentials and several advisory persons operate in dual roles as registered representatives and licensed insurance professionals — arrangements the brochure discloses as potential conflicts of interest that the firm seeks to manage.

Not sure where to start?
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 introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
