About
The firm provides portfolio management and related financial planning services to individual investors, primarily implementing portfolios made up of mutual funds and exchange-traded funds and offering managed account programs and IRA rollover recommendations. Clients receive written portfolio evaluations and periodic account reports, with the firm describing regular supervision designed to meet individual objectives.
The firm follows a long-term purchase approach and uses fundamental, technical, and cyclical analysis to guide investment selection, typically recommending holdings intended to be held at least one year. It operates largely on a non-discretionary basis—clients retain authority over trade executions, broker selection, and proxy voting—and may choose quarterly, semi-annual, or annual review schedules.
Compared with many independent advisers, the firm’s combination of a small client base and roughly $12 million in AUM with primarily non-discretionary management is uncommon. The brochure also highlights retirement-planning credentials, an explicit fiduciary acknowledgement when advising on rollovers, limited custody only to facilitate fee deduction, and an explicit discussion of emerging risks such as cryptocurrencies.

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
