Alex Tirso is a Wealth Advisor and Partner of Steward Partners. He helps successful individuals demystify the financial puzzle through the financial planning process. As a CFP® Practitioner, Alex works alongside his clients to help them flesh out their specific long-term needs and craft a holistic plan to get them there.
Simply put, Alex helps young investors get organized and start their "saving muscle"; middle-aged families ensure they're set up for college expenses and retirement, and (pre)-retirees create a custom income plan so that they do not outlive their wealth. 2 questions are always answered, "Will I make it?" and "Do I have any financial blindspots?"
Alex holds a Bachelor of Science in Finance from The University of Maryland. As a believer in lifelong learning, Alex earned his Certified Financial Planner designation in July 2022 and attained his Certified Investment Management Analyst designation via Yale Executive Education Program in November 2018.
Alex lives in Hudson County, New Jersey with his wife Cristina and their son, Sebastian. He is an avid runner, having completed two New York City marathons and is looking forward to participating in the Chicago marathon in October 2024. He loves to read or listen to podcasts on personal development and health & wellness. His wife and he have visited more than 20 countries. They enjoy blending "adventure vacations"--having hiked Macchu Pichu, the W-Trek in Patagonia, and spending 3 days in the Amazon jungle--with touring new cities & beaches.
