About

The firm provides financial planning and investment advisory services to individual clients, primarily offering discretionary portfolio management, ongoing retirement planning, and project-based financial planning. It manages about $15 million on behalf of a very small client base and serves both advisory clients and those who engage only on a planning or project basis.

The firm’s investment approach emphasizes portfolio construction using Modern Portfolio Theory and largely passive vehicles, typically index mutual funds and ETFs, with allocations set to align a client’s goals and risk tolerance. It manages accounts on a discretionary basis when authorized, and uses a digital custodial and model marketplace platform to implement model portfolios and trading.

Noteworthy features include a mix of fee arrangements beyond a single asset-based fee—separate flat retainers for ongoing retirement planning and fixed fees for project work—and a stated $500,000 minimum for investment management clients while still offering planning services to others. The principal also maintains an independent tax consulting activity and a small rental business (each disclosed as limited other business activities), and the firm receives soft-dollar benefits through its chosen custodial platform.

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 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
