About

The firm provides investment advisory and financial planning services to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), pension and profit‑sharing plans, trusts, estates and charitable organizations. Services include portfolio management (both discretionary and non‑discretionary), comprehensive financial planning (cash flow, tax, insurance review, retirement and estate planning) and acting as a referral liaison to third‑party money managers.

Investment Strategies customizes portfolios using fundamental, technical and cyclical analysis and offers both direct management and digital platform solutions; it uses the Betterment for Advisors platform and may delegate management to independent managers while supervising performance. The firm also arranges for third‑party money managers to manage accounts and provides client support and ongoing liaison services with those managers.

Notable distinctions include the firm’s small scale (two advisors and roughly $8.8 million in AUM) and a recent regulatory disclosure: an August 2025 agreement with the state regulator that included a civil penalty and a 24‑month restriction on recommending non‑publicly traded securities. The brochure also discloses that the firm’s principal has an affiliated insurance business that occupies a substantial portion of his time and that the firm receives referral and incentive compensation from third‑party managers (including arrangements with Gradient Investments), conflicts the firm says it manages through disclosure and fiduciary procedures.

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.

Find your advisor

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.

By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
