Executive Director | President
Wealth Management | Risk and Strategy
Chief Investment Officer | Shareholder

“We started this firm nearly 20 years ago after my 19-year career working for brokerage firms that were selling financial products to their customers with their left hand while trying to break into the business of providing independent and objective financial advice to them with their right hand.

By definition, securities brokerage and fiduciary investment management and advisory services are mutually exclusive businesses.  We have purposely built this firm from the ground up to be in just one business ‒ providing professional fiduciary wealth management and advisory services.”

Prior to founding the firm in 2005, he was a Senior Vice President, Portfolio Manager and Trust Officer at Morgan Stanley and a Managing Director, Senior Investment Management Consultant and Portfolio Manager at US Bancorp Piper Jaffray.

Prior to the development of his individual client practice, he served institutional clients, hedging and arbitraging U.S. Government securities from the trading floor of the Chicago Board of Trade for a primary dealer trading directly with the Federal Reserve System during the historic 1980’s bear market in bonds.
