Mahesh is the founder and President of Strategic Wealth Design, an independent financial services firm in Las Vegas, NV. The firm was founded on Mahesh's vision, to enrich the lives of people we touch by helping them create financial freedom and security.
The firm specializes in working with physicians, dentists, and business owners, helping them reduce taxes, optimize savings, and invest efficiently.
Mahesh is passionate about leadership and is naturally drawn towards helping and leading organizations in his community. He is often invited to speak to large groups about how to achieve financial balance in their lives.
As you can see from the alphabet soup after Mahesh's name, he values education and is constantly learning to perfect the art of financial planning. Mahesh continuously shares his knowledge in industry groups and trains financial advisors to improve their own practices.
In his downtime, he enjoys spending time with his wife, Mamta, and three children (Nirvan, Rehan, and Yasmin) doing something fun like watching superhero films, hiking, swimming, exercising, and travelling. When he is able to get some quiet time on his own (usually around 5 AM), Mahesh meditates to get grounded for the day ahead.
At Strategic Wealth Design, we recognize that most people have two primary financial goals: Financial Security (you'll be okay no matter what happens) and Financial Freedom (enough net worth that you don't have to work if you don't want to). However, work, family and social obligations often make it difficult to find time to plan for the future you want.
That is why we serve busy families, small business owners, and professionals who are looking for financial guidance and coaching, so they can focus on living their lives and running their businesses. Our approach starts with listening and understanding your goals, dreams, and concerns. Then we get to work and help you:
Get financially organized
Protect your income and wealth
Gain tax efficiencies
Reduce financial waste
Save and invest more
Using a Comprehensive Financial Planning process, we help you create a plan that addresses all aspects of your financial life, from protection and cash flow, to retirement savings and taxes.

Financial Services |
Financial Planning for IndividualsOur Financial Planning process utilizes a two-phase approach: a design phase and a build phase. If you compare building a financial plan to constructing a house, your advisors at Strategic Wealth Design first act as architects to design the house, and then as contractors to build it. |
Portfolio ManagementThrough a detailed review of your portfolio's asset allocation, we'll assess how it aligns with your goals and how it compares to your tolerance for risk. During this review, we will identify strengths, weaknesses, areas of concern, recommended changes (as appropriate), and provide a detailed set of portfolio recommendations. |
Retirement PlanningWe explore and clarify your retirement-income goals and the options available to achieve them. Our team will create a comprehensive retirement income projection and chart your progress toward the retirement you envision. |
Insurance PlanningWe will help you understand your financial risks, current coverage, and how best to protect your future. Areas of review include: Life Insurance, Disability Income Insurance, Health Insurance, Long-Term Care Insurance, Property and Casualty Insurance |
Tax Advice and ServicesEach year, we will provide a multi-year tax projection to identify tax-savings opportunities and discuss these with your accountant as needed. |
Risk ManagementWe will help you understand your Financial risks, current coverage, and how best to protect your future. Areas of review include: Life Insurance, Disability Income Insurance, Health Insurance, Long-Term Care Insurance, Property and Casualty Insurance |
Financial Planning for BusinessesOur Financial Planning Services for businesses involve reviewing your business legal structure, financials, goals, and succession plans. A trusted advisor to many business owners, we will lend our experience and expertise to helping you achieve your business planning goals. |
