Meet The Team

Our Team's Purpose

Our role is to provide sound wealth management for our clients.  This includes developing the financial planning specifics, investment strategy and implementation, and insurance policy reviews, strategies and implementation.

Initial consultations typically will typically consist of discussing overall  general financial and life goals and objectives along with concerns about your current financial situation.  This will include a lengthy discussion about your overall financial picture, including cash flow, debts and insurance.  Knowledge of those areas is critical before addressing investments and retirement planning.

This comprehensive approach to wealth management and close alliance with our clients' attorneys and CPA's allows us to help you in getting your entire financial picture to work together.

Our team includes the support of professionals affiliated with our closely connected strategic partners Cetera Financial Group, Horizon Advisor Network (part of Horizon Financial Group).
