About
The firm serves individuals, trusts, estates, charitable organizations and small businesses, providing personalized financial planning and investment management. It also operates an affiliated income tax–preparation practice and performs tax work separately from advisory engagements.
The advisor offers tailored, modular planning and can deliver advice on an hourly, fixed‑fee or ongoing AUM basis, with clients able to choose discretionary or non‑discretionary portfolio management. Investment work typically follows a core‑and‑satellite approach using no‑ or low‑load mutual funds and ETFs as the core, with periodic (generally quarterly) reviews and customized implementation as client objectives change.
As a solo, fee‑only independent practice with about 31 clients and roughly $6.1 million in assets under management, the firm does not accept commissions. Its combination of investment advisory services and an affiliated tax‑preparation operation (including tax‑preparer registration among its staff) is a relatively uncommon feature for firms in this category and may be relevant to clients seeking integrated tax and planning coordination.

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.
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
