General Information |
| Firm Start Year: | 1923 | |
| Number of Years with Current Firm: | 1 |
| Work Experience: | I began my career in quantitative finance, helping research new factors for our institutional clients. After a downturn in the quantitative finance market, I went in to pension consulting, helping craft portfolios for pension funds across the western United States. This entailed asset allocation, risk analysis, manager selection and ongoing monitoring and rebalancing. In 2013 I founded my own RIA, Greyfox Investors, with the goal of delivering institutional level service and expertise to the individual marketplace. Our founding values were transparency, simplicity and affordability. I ran Greyfox for 9 years before deciding to make the jump to Savvy to further the ways I could help clients. |

Financial Services |
| Portfolio Management
My focus is on creating sophisticated investment portfolios without excess complexity. Clients should understand what they own, and why their portfolio looks the way it does. Excess complexity does little to improve performance, it often just makes things harder to understand. |
| Wealth Management
I take a holistic approach to wealth management. My goal is always to deliver the optimal outcome using the simplest tools possible. I want each client to feel comfortable and knowledgeable with the plans we create. I also want to educate clients on the process so they do not feel left in the dark. |
